    Do Mondials need the rear grip to be "improved massively"? I would think that wing would turn a nicely balanced car into one with a massive push.

    People with such taste shouldn't drive a Ferrari, better look for a job at 'Pimp my ride'!

    The 355 front fascia really sets it off. What an abomination.

    The car is only 45 miles from me but I would have to say something if I went, I had heard of this car before as it did go to one of the major Ferrari meets about 2 years ago, I just wonder what reception it got.

    Mounted on the trunk lid?

    If that wing produced more than an ounce of downforce, it would just bend the panel.

    That's just a silly way to keep the trunk closed. It would'a been better to simply fix the latch.

    About all that might do is roil the air behind the car, in case someone were trying to draft you. It'd be interesting to see how much that wing reduces his fuel mileage.

    OTOH: Does that look like a stock soft-top? I wouldn't think the factory top would protrude like that.

    If the (replacement) top is massively non-aerodynamic, there might be a rear deck lift issue that may need a spoiler. (Like the econobox shell issues on the EVO and STi.) But it wouldn't take a multistrake bling wing like that.
