I agree with scott,

the idea behind the spoiler is to "slow" down as when audi launched the TT the cars were flipping and the front end lifting when the hit 80mph

porsche found this out and added the retrcting spoiler to rise at 74mph and fall at 50mph. The reason it falls at 50 mph is because it would look silly if they did it closer to 74 as it would be up and down more times than a hookers underwear.

But yep spoilers are to slow down or cancel lift.... the amount of people who add them as they think is speeds up is scary!]


also i cant see the point of an automatic car, the whole idea behind a car is to "drive it"
