And that on a SVR with the large wing only the wing itself tilts and the otherwise deployable spoiler it is mounted to does not move at all.
Edit - looking at the pic and knowing how far the "ordinary" wing rises there is no doubt that if the base of the large wing also rose like the ordinary wing the tips of the large wing would foul on the tops of the rear fenders.

There are some posts and threads around here somewhere about replacing the stock deployable wing with the "sports" fixed wing (not the SVR wing) and that needs a whole kit with a number of new parts.

i was going to do the svr trade a while ago, had a long term test drive and i wasn't really left thinking there was much difference, other than the newer nav screen - i'm also not a fan of the silver faux alu plastic trim in the later cars, but that's nit picking
biggest issue for me was the awd, the svr def accelerated faster off the line but i'd attribute that more to the awd than +25hp, but i didn't like how planted it was. the R in rwd moves around a lot in the rear and in an era of forced awd hybrids/ev's on horizon, it's a quickly diminishing platform
if you're comparing awd R to awd SVR, as i realise you guys in US only got the rwd for a short amount of time, i'd prob go the SVR just for the ego of it honestly

That's what grabbed me, then after coming to this site I discovered the low build numbers of the SVR which adds to the exclusivity of the interior, body panels, and exhaust.
