Rear lift isn't an issue for me because I don't drive anywhere near fast enough for it to be a problem.

I was in Europe in '97.Driving south from Frankfurt,I got to see first hand, for the first time,the concept of driving at unlimited speed.I was in a rented Mitsubishi doing 124-mph ( 200 km/h ),and the big 6-series BMWs / Mercedes,and Porsches were blowing by like I was standing still.I don't know how fast the Opel will go,but it's certain that a little extra downforce would'nt be unwelcome at the speeds they can legally drive.
