The Mitsubishi version (3000 GT) uses a more conventional spoiler location at the tail of the car compared to the one on the Dodge version (Stealth).

Although I have always wondered about the true Aero implications of the one on the Dodge version.

Especially condsidering the reported effectivness of the double spoiler on the Merkur XR4Ti.
