The RS wing to me just gives your car a more aggressive, look at me look. I personally feel the RS defines what porsche is about. Sport, race, track. They are designed for the track. In my case i get a lot of compliments from the local PCA club. But yet again I am the youngest in the clan. Do what you feel fits your personality! Im more of the, here I am type and less of the mello boring type. Hope this helps!
Bob, you do have a valid point...what most matter is what you like.

As for me, as growing older i like separate myself from the crowd.

Seriously? Age has nothing to do with it. It's personal style.

The RS wing is actually functional unlike many out there with adjustable rake. It's huge for a purpose, the track. The .2 RS wing is even larger. I think it looks great, I have .1 GT3RS with the huge carbon wing.

That said, on a narrow body car I think it's too much, personally.

A .1 gt3 wing or aerokit wing will look aggressive w/o being too bosozoku.

My carrera had stock rear wing, was going to put an aerokit on it but decided to get an RS.

That is a legitimate concern.
