Default Speed Sensing Spoiler?

Does the Spoiler come standard or is it part of the premium package?
Does it come with a non speed sensing spoiler as standard or something?

It is standard. With the carbon package, it is made of carbon fiber. However, still speed sensing in both cases.

It's not really standard. You can get it of you add the Premium package or the Performance (carbon) package.

This is based on the 2015 RCF Product Information document.

I'm hoping an aftermarket company such as Seibon will release their version of a carbon fiber speed sensing wing as well. Save alil $.

The RC F will come with a speed sensing spoiler in the Premium Package (which most RC F's will be built with unless special ordered). The only difference is if you get the Performance Package which gives you Carbon Fiber Spoiler/Roof as well as the TVD. I was recently at Monticello racing and learning about the new RC's and NX's, that was a question I made sure I asked!

Hope that helps!

The "speed activated rear wing" is standard according to current lexus website:

SPEED-ACTIVATED REAR WING
Activated at speeds above 50 mph or with the touch of a button, this rear wing responds to high-speed demands for greater aerodynamics by increasing downforce to help keep you firmly planted on the road. And taking the sleek appeal of the coupe even further, the rear wing seamlessly integrates into the trunk lid when not in use.
STANDARD ON: RC F RWD

Just like all the non ring LFA's
