Question Spoiler preference?

Just an idea and I want to get everyones thoughts?

I like the rear spoiler on the standard Crossfire better then the SRT-6 spoiler.

Ever think about putting the standard "pop up" spoiler on the SRT-6?

Is the SRT-6 spoiler lighter because it has no mechanical parts (motor, hinges and what not)?

I just think the "pop up" spoiler is kinda neat,,, and cooler.

i go with the "pop up" because i have a base. but its pretty much even. i mean the pop up is very cool and i gives you the option. but the srt is just as cool, it balances out the rear half of the car nicely and it has the grooves same as the hood.

I think the base/limited spoiler is really dinky. It seems kind of puny.. the srt-6 is more "manly" and bigger.. and yes fills up the back of the car nicely.. I love it.

I'm with you. I don't like that puny spoiler at all. It's functunal I know, but somehow cheesy.

Yes it is a little puny but it can crush a empty beverage can no problem when it goes down

Don't much like a spoilers at all. So one that hides away until it's needed gets my vote!

When I first bought my SRT-6, I strongly considered swapping the spoilers. But with time, the rear spoiler on the SRT grew on me and I actually prefer it now. The rear on the NA versions (when the spoiler s not deployed) looks a heavy without something to break it up. Just my .02.

I've got to cast my vote for the NA spoiler. Just the fact that you can deploy at a stop like makes it "COOL".

I'm with Inferno, I like em both about the same, so I didn't vote. I guess that's why I keep mine down most all the time.

SRT6 Coupe with srt 6 spoiler: Not really beautiful but acceptable. One gets used to it.

SRT6 Roadster with srt6 spoiler: very ugly. The spoiler-design destroys the design of the Roadster

I love the extendable spoiler from the base model.

Gerhard, didn't you actually install the base model spoiler on your SRT-6 Roadster? I love the way it looks, and it might surprise a few folks when they think you're "just" driving a base

My vote goes 60% SRT, 40% Limited/Base. I like different attributes of both
