The cam/crank sensor error is common and most likely not the sensor. It will only effect how efficiently it starts but will run fine.
The rear spoiler actually helps with a cleaner seperation than no spoiler as it's the one near window. (From what I could gather)
Engine off coasting is not ok. Uses a mechanical pump for transaxle which quickly overheats when engine off neutral coasting. I heard lots of interesting grinding/whining sounds after starting moving again.

Thanks!
I think the thermostat isn't fully opening up. When I got home the other day the lower radiator hose wasn't very warm (wasn't cold either), and the coolant temp on the scangauge was over 200F when I parked it a few minutes before.
Is there any way to fix the crank/camshaft sensor error?
Thanks for that bit on the spoiler.
I haven't tried engine off coasting, since its an automatic so I just assume thats and issue. Thanks for verifying it though.
