I have the spoon replica ht with side windows and you wouldn't believe the amount of attention it gets on the road. 4 out of 5 times I get approached at gas stations while filling up. Nobody knows what kind of car it is.

I agree, in pictures it looks ugly. I would never get one without side windows too. It really is something you'd have to see in person to appreciate.

And the trunk works!

It's for aerodynamics.The airfoil smoothly slopes upwards so the wind pushes down on the car over the rear wheels for traction.
Spoon doesn't make parts that serve no racing purpose
guess you are proven wrong.

original spoon hardtop didn't have an ugly tail thingy.

maybe they did this to appeal to consumers or make it different from the original and keeping the original more track authentic. iono i guess we will never know. only spoon will

I personally think the spoon hardtop is hideous, it makes the car look so top heavy.

i'd put a cage in it to make it as stiff as the cayman but ya, with that top a boxter makes sense, i do need some power adders though
