Default GTC series wing

Hi all
Ok no "rice" comments ok, but was wondering what all you thought of the GTC series wings for cars. Esp the SC430. I have been watching those GT races on Speed channel and am getting hooked. Those Audi sedans and RX8s rock more then I thought! The other day I saw the GT series and the SC430. Its not my style but after seeing the red SC430r (post bellow) I am taking a new look at the role of my luxury coupe and more of a luxury "sporty" coupe.(which I think Lexus intended) Plus unlike a 96 stock Hyundai with a wing I think the SC430 has the "B@lls" to back it up.

Here are a few pics of the GTSC430

well i wont' say much, it's personal preference after all.

but to me, the moment you put that wing on, you completely take away the word "luxury".

humm that wing looks nice on the GT sc430 because that car is a wide body, slammed on the floor beast that has use for that type of wing when its going 150+.... it would look ridiculous for someone to slap that wing on a stock sc..... the body lines won’t even support it.....


If your car is going to look like the GT car then go for it! but for most of the people on this forum who don’t have a full blown wide body kit, that wing will only weigh you down and just look plain silly...

Go for it!
As long as you get the GT body kit, rims, suspension and engine mods with it

The lower wing like this one on the G35 might look pretty good on the SC.
