Default Roadster "Pop-Up" Spoiler

In looking at a few pic's this morning, I'm wondering if the "pop-up" spoiler on an NA Roadster is actually larger than the "pop-up" spoiler on the NA Coupe? Several close-ups of roadsters gives this appearance, or is it an illusion!

Never noticed it before, but my recent search for a possible roadster has me paying a little more attention to the details.

Not that it makes any difference on downforce.. Just seems to be a cosmetic difference.

I was considering removing mine from my SRT roadster at one time it is so ugly. I prefer seeing smooth curve in the back. I'm not typically driving my car at 140 MPH where it might make a difference in downforce on the rear tires on turns..

I've owned three Roadsters.

Mine has always been bigger.
