Let me try to explain this.

See not every person in the world puts a wing on their car to make it look pretty. If you can actually imagine this, some of those doo dads ricers put on their cars (splitters, canards) actually serve a function on fast cars.

The wing on that car for instance actually has a function, its called creating downforce. See when a car is capable of doin 200mph or more, lift becomes a issue. When a car gets to much lift it will cause instability at speed or worse. Saleen must have not got the whole lift thing figured out, so they had to put a wing on the more powerfull S7.

I mean come on, do you guys seriously think it's their for looks?
