rear flap on the LP640

My cousin brought his LP640 to work today. At lunch he showed me a small retractable fin at the rear of the car. He had never noticed it before until today when he was driving. The fin popped up while he was driving it this morning. It never happened before. He wanted me to post a thread about it to ask any of you what it is. I would appreciate the feedback.

Downforce. It pops up to 50 degrees over 80 mph, and 70 degrees over 130.

If he's had the car a year and never seen that before, tell him to stop driving it like a girl.

I'm sorry I find it hard to believe this thread is for real. Who owns an LP640 and doesn't know about the automatic flaps? Who owns an LP640 and doesn't drive above 80MPH? I'm calling bull****.

I'm guessing you're talking about the air intakes?
The flap he's talking about is a little rear wing in the middle of the rear.

Has your brother never seen the display light up when the spoiler goes up..

See it here. (I don't know why the media tags (anymedia player) won't work??)

After 150 the display lights up.
