Fun thing about this spoiler- you can pop it up and down at what ever speed you want, but it's programmed to pop up at 65-70 I believe. Road testers say at higher speeds (tracks) it does keep the rear of the car planted. In my mountain road driving ('08 Boxster S), I couldn't hit speeds fast enough to tell, but at 50mph on some wicked roads the car had MORE than enough mechanical grip, you have to get pretty crazy to make good use of the spoiler. However, maybe there's some fuel economy plus since it's a drop-top, not being a totally ideal shape.
