Has anyone actually seen improvements in the realm of high speed stability with a higher rear wing?
i know they only did this on the old 8/9 chassis due to the shape of the rear window, which was causing air flow separation ealier along the slope.. this was to benefit the effectiveness of the high rear wing by accelerating air underneath the airfoil..
now with the new X.. from the looks of the shape of the rear window, it's alot smoother and gradual slope that the previous generation...

Only MRs with the technology package have the larger antenna base the rest have the smaller base, the MR doesn't have a SSS package. It comes standard with HIDs, larger spoiler and FAST key, and bluetooth, but not the RF sound system which can be added as an option or part of the technology package that also includes the Navi (the Navi can also be purchased by itself).
Essentially if your car has Sirius Satellite Radio than you have the big antenna base. If it doesn't have Sirius than you have the smaller antenna base. The Antenna has nothing to do with the Navi, the larger base is the antenna for Sirius which only comes with the RF stereo. So no sub woofer in your trunk, small base;if you have a sub woofer in your trunk, big base.

I can't open the PDF for some reason.
my main question was the benefits of Vortex Generators on the X chassis, with the high wing.
