Would you remove the wing from a GT3?
Oh hell no. but the GT3 wing looks much better. This one has the strange arc to it that reminds me of the Mitsubishi Eclipse from most angles. It is only from the pure side view that I really like how it looks. But, like I said, I appreciate it for what it does. I'm sure it is extremely functional. And if I didn't need rear seats and was able to somehow get my hands on a GT350R, I'd definitely leave the wing in place. It's aesthetically not quite right is all. At least from some angles. Maybe because much if the car seems very aggressive and masculine, and then there is this swoopy, soft looking wing. Just something about it is a little off to me. But I might like it more in person, plus cars tend to grow on me, so over time I'll probably come to like it.

looking at it last night on Barrett Jackson, It didn't not look that big. it does look very functional. there is a slight rise to the top rear of the spoiler. the design is new... new is different, and different can be scary. I think its very innovative... in the way it makes contact with the car.

Believe me, I know the wing is functional for downforce, but the wing is the one thing I don't like about the 350R based on what I've seen in pics. I'm sure it will be different in person. I hope it will look more subdued on a black car.

if you go 120+mph then it work, but any slower it doesn't do much

Actually, a good wing will improve your speed in high speed (80-120 mph) corners, as well.

Why would they have to wait for the GT350R wing? If it was such a big problem you'd be seeing big wings on the backs of Mustangs already from other manufacturers.

Because as soon as pictures of this car came out tons of muatang owners on this forum started asking when they can get one? Is it on sale yet? I want one! I am getting that.

At least it's not a front wheel drive car with that huge wing on it. :)

Probably wont have to wait on Ford to get one...
Remember the 2000 Cobra R and it's giant wing.... Cervini's had that wing replicated in a matter of no time.
Unfortunatly...most ended up on stock V6's and GT's :doh:
