Coupe rear spoiler - can't decide
Do I go with a rear spoiler on the 6MT coupe? My original car choice of diamond graphite/graphite leather no spoiler is nowhere to be found. I have a choice of silver/graphite with or without spoiler. I just can't decide. I originally was not going with a spoiler. It is starting to grow on me. Decisions! Decisions! Why can't life be simple? I had an Eclipse with a large spoiler. The spoiler on the G actually does not look bad. I just don't know.

In my opinion, the spoiler is a must have, it makes the car! As far as color, the G looks much better in the darker graphite. The silver is rather plain looking, especially sans spoiler. But truth be told, the G looks best in black with the spoiler!

go for the spoiler. car looks like its missing something without it. I do think silver is a rather bland color as well (even though i have it) but get black and you'll cry every time you see swirl marks. silver stays clean even when you don't wash it.

The dealer found a diamond graphite/graphite leather 6MT that has the spoiler so I grabbed it. Should have it Friday 4/16. I've actually gotten to like the factory spoiler ( I didn't at first) - I like having the center brake light in the spoiler - gives it more of a finished look.
I just bought a 6MT Diamond Graphite/Graphite sans spoiler, picked it up today. First day learning to drive a clutch too...and it's also the first day I am 25. A lot of firsts. = ) all good though...
1) Coefficient of drag is 0.29 without the spoiler, and 0.28 with.
2) Greater downforce on the rear wheels with the spoiler means high-speed stability is significantly better with it than without.
Therefore, if performance matters more than cosmetics, the spoiler should be a no-brainer.

i didn't want the spoiler before hand, and i got one without it.. and now everytime i see a coupe with a wing, i regret it.. i thought it looked uglee at first, but it slowly grew on me.. sigh..
