Actually, on a Porsche it does do something. If you recall, a Porsche is a rear engine car. At high speeds, or on a track, they benefit A LOT from a wing like that.

Don't be ignorant, you can bitch all you want when you see that wing on a Honda though

With it being a rear engine car, shouldn't their already be alot of weight on the rear wheels. but it does have mods.....but does it seriously need to be that high. and that modern(if you call that modern) for a car that old?

K..

That's a porsche 914..probably one of the slowest porsches ever made..

It's also a mid engine car, meaning that it's not built like the 911s..with the engine in the rear..

so it has no excuse to have that wing.

As for the comment "hey, at least it's a porsche"

ahaha..it's a VW..it has a flat 4 vw engine. That car is a disgrace.

I dont care how fast it is it still looks funny to me. IMO hondas can have wings that big and its there business but i will things thats just as funny.

I do see that other nice car in the garage now tho. I didnt even think about it but i found this car because im bidding on that ferraris tires. Which makes it a 360 modena.
