    Me and 3 other guys built the stock exhaust on every one of this generation Ford GT, i worked in the prototype shop for Arvin-Meritor in the early 2000's, these were such a low production run car that we hand built them all instead of setting up an assembly line

    It's crazy to me how many "car guys" call a rear spoiler a "wing". I mean, wings help you fly. A spoiler does the opposite, it holds you down....With force. Down force, spoiler. Easy to remeber.

      Turn your thinking upside down (no pun intended) haha.. Wings make downforce. Its an upside down airfoil. Spoilers just help kind of massage the airflow, and spoil dirty air behind the car. A spoiler makes the car more slippery (it sometimes provides downforce but not much). It reduces aero drag essentially..... A wing on the otherhand gives you tons of downforce but increases drag. So usually cars that run big wings also have a bunch of spoiler action going on too. :)

      It’s obvious you’re new to the car scene regardless of your waining life span. Spoilers have been referred to as wings since the 60s and have been known as such colloquially since then

    All the cars where sick, that gt3 rs is my dream, but the r8’s are sick and the ford gt is just gorgeous. I think that Ferrari replica is really cool looks like it was well done.

    Get the Ferrari, I've wanted that car since I first watched Ferris buellers day off, in my case I'll keep dreaming.
