I am talking about the one that comes up in addition to the stationairy wing. Just seems ghey to put it up when driving 10mph and then parking..... but... i think it is ghey to talk on your cell phone for 20 minutes while sitting in a restuarant...... so what do i know.

I think I am going to pop the hood of my Mustang when I park so everyone can see my engine??

The 996TT comes with a rear wing that stays up all the time.

It goes up automatically above 75 mph and goes back down at approximately 38 mph. There is a button on the dashboard that does allow you to raise or lower it manually. If you hit the button to make it go up it will stay up when stopped, parked etc. Once you shut the car off it sort of resets itself. When you start the car with it up it will stay up but as you drive for a period of time it will go down again once you go below 38 mph.

I personally think the stock wing looks better when up so I would often hit the button so it would stay up. I eventually bought a GT-2 wing because I like the looks of it better. I got the GT-2 front bumper as well for the same reason. Before I start to get "poser" comments, I left the turbo emblem on the back.

I think there's a manual override so you can put it up and leave it up.
