If the design of that big dumb wing was so important to the aerodynamics of the car, why does Mitsubishi now offer a wingless version of the trunk on the later models? Come on, do you actually think the wing makes that much of a difference for the average Evo owner?

Probably because some people like the clean look of it without the wing, all in a persons preference really.
