Default Anyone else notice the spoiler?

It would be very un-Nissan like, but I keep looking at that rear spoiler on the German prototype... it looks like it might actually move up/down with speed. It doesn't look very well integrated into the decklid, for a stationary spoiler.

I dunno... I'd be surprised if it did move, though.

Maybe it's the shadows or something. But it looks a little bit "floaty"...

I thought the same thing until I saw the brake light strip directly under the spoiler. That negates the wing moving up or down as it would cover the brake light. Would have been sweet though.

With cost and knowing how little things like new designs on Nissan's can break, I'd opt out of that feature. Look how the transition from R34 to R35 GT-R got rid of the mechanically adjustable spoiler.

Not necessarily. Not fully up and down, but goes down to a "resting" position, but still not completely folded - what we see in the pics. But then can tilt up further as speed increases... so more of a "tilting" movement than actually going up and down.

It just looks a little weird the way it sits... but who knows.
