After you've mentioned Countach having a front lift problem, you instantly reminded me the opening scene from Cannonball Run movie. There was a black Countach with a wing attached to the front. I used to think movie guys just put it there for the looks, but it might've been functional after all. Never would've thought)
6:12 can we just stop to appreciate the simplicity of this engine bay? Compare this to modern cars and u wonder wtf is filling the space in a modern engine bay.
I think the hydraulic wing that Zenvo often uses is pretty iconic too! And one of the most iconic but I think most hated spoilers is that front spoiler of the Countach. It's more a meme than something iconic but still XD
What's so iconic about those Sure the R34 have adjustable wing And the supra have that tall spoiler But it's nothing special compared to the ones on this vid
The halo implemented in F1 as well as other formula motorsport is IMO based on the whale tail of the Escort Cosworth but shrinked to fit around the cockpit of a Formula 1 car.
The spoiler fitted to the Escort Cosworth was known as a whale tail and originated on the Sierra MK1 from the early 80's while we still had the MK3 Escort and about 7-8 years before theMk5 Escort that the Cosworth was based on was even introduced. Although technically they were really Escort panels on modified Sierra underpinnings.
Seriously at beginning I thought this is a stolen video from any another big channel but i was wrong your vids are very nice edited, much informative and your on point sense humour. You earned a sub!
When you Mention the Charger Daytona, you should also Mention the Plymouth Superbird. And the BMW 3.0 CSL Spoiler is missing, one of the most iconic Wings, it even gave the BMW the Name "Batmobil", how could it get more iconic
@@TylerVogelI think you meant Plymouth and Dodge were part of the same CORPORATION. you say the Charger and the Roadrunner are basically the same? They did have the same Chrysler Pentastar badges and the paint job was a MOPAR color as well, so by your argument, that would make them virtually identical, but they aren't. I don't think the big wings are even interchangeable ( the smaller, optional GO-wing probably was on the Charger and Roadrunner). Take another look at a Charger and a Roadrunner, then the modifications done to make them into Daytona's and Superbird's respectively. You will find that they two different cars.
@@killermachine6859 DUR DE DUR of course each company is going to put their own design on the car I'm talking about the body platform. For example the Charger Daytona and the Plymouth Superbird is the Chrysler B body platform this doesn't mean that each company didn't design their own cars the same, I couldn't put the super Birds tail light on the Dodge Charger Daytona because they're different tail lights. For another example with my dream car being a GM manufactured car, the 1966 Pontiac GTO was an a body platform car and but buick used the a body for their cutlass in 66 and the GTO and cutlass are very different all be it the GTO looking way way better than the cutlass. You talk like a mopar fan boy but a true mopar fan knows about body platforms and what they mean. Though in my opinion the Pontiac GTO is the best muscle car and in facts Pontiac started the muscle car era with the gto in the early 60s due to gm restrictions on big engines in big cars but Pontiac found themselves a loophole with the tempest being not a big car but a smaller economy car. They released this new high power tempest as an option package and named the package gto short for grand tempest option. People loved it so much that after a couple years around comes 1966 Pontiac released the gto as its own car and it got its damn beautiful coke bottle styling and beautiful front end, rear end, and damn cool wings coming off the rear part of the roof. Dodge ripped Pontiac's gto styling from 66 and 67 with the same coke bottle styling and roof shape just stretched longer and with their own front and rear end design. I couldn't blame dodge though that styling was bad ass. Now if I were to build my GTO clone or when I should say I'd go to dodge a hemi GTO hellcat or demon sounds even more bad ass
@@killermachine6859 another great example I heard once about Chrysler cars was that even though the cuda and challenger were safe body platforms you could put a cudas fender on a challenger and a challenger's fender on a cuda they wouldn't fit.
F40, Veyron, Sagaris. Wonder you could've added Koenigsegg wings as they were the first to implement the hanging swan neck spoilers which are becoming a norm nowadays.
The Wings of the WRX Sti and the Evo are called in Germany Bartheke (bar) sometimes. You could put your beers on them. And the Pikes Peak Audi Quattro S1 has an iconic wing too. But this is a race car.
Last three cars were Ferrari F40, Bugatti veyron and Lexus LFA. This vid brought back memories, the countach when I was a kid, I remember looking at that wing and those air scoops and thought, 'that's not a car, it's a fighter jet on wheels'. That and that fact it was a transformer!
@@tmt-3973 Thanks for that it had been bugging me for while. Uncle google didn't help either... Definitely looked like Lexus style lights, but now I know better!
Very glad the STI made it on this list. A staple of what Subaru did in the rally scene, and my goodness those little rally cars or so badass yet small and cute, can’t get over the looks of those things.
Dang! After watching both of your wing videos (most iconic and most advanced) I'm sad to not see a spot or even an honorable mention to the Mitsubishi GTO/3000GT VR-4.
Yeah, I should've put it in the honourable section of advanced wings. Although nothing spectacular, it was one of the first cars to have active aero. Too bad GTO did it so incognito - if it was more flashy I bet more people would take notice and give it more credit.
@@TopCarsTV Yeah, Mitsubishi seemed to be shooting for something high tech yet also refined and classy. But man people flip out when they see my wing wave at them. If anything the direct precursor to the 3000GT, the HSR-II would be a great mention. I know it was more of a tech test bench/concept and never meant for production, but seriously - the Active Aero flaps, splitters and canards on that thing are crazy cool even today!
I had to look up the HSR... Damn, that is one wild aero kit. I especially love the canards! And the rest of the car reminds me if that insane Dodge SRT Tomahawk concept for GranTurismo game. PS. Seems like you are a walking Mitsubishi encyclopedia. I'd be too if I had the GTO 😉
@@TopCarsTV Pretty crazy, right? You'd hardly recognize Mitsubishi today as ever having been capable of that kind of engineering. P.S.: I try ;) . Once I discovered the 3000GT, I did my research... Needless to say I hungrily searched for and bought myself one for a reason. This car blows me away.
I never liked the Countach when the spoilers, wheel arches and wide tires were added. The original LP400 styling by Marcello Gandini was stunning and evocative, the later cars just look junky to me.
6:52 Ricer: OHH HELL BOI THAT SO GREAT IDEA :D (put that on the rice car ASS) Normal: Hmm well i don't think so Me: What that car? (a nice looking car for that glass ducktail)
also, having driven a countach i can tell you it was as scary to drive as it was sexy to look at. pretty sure i nearly killed myself a bunch of times too. oh and as you asked, you missed the ford sierra RS COSWORTH. it came before the escort RS COSWORTH just as the escort XR3i came before the fiesta XR2. good old british engineering at its best
@@TopCarsTV they're similar but the Sierra is slightly bigger. but, if you want the truth, they are as ugly as all hell! i had the Sierra a few years back (im old so the insurance wasnt as bad). so anyway, had her for a few months and then sold her on. the wing was really a marketing gimmick and didnt work all that well, at least on the Sierra. the Escort was a rally car so worked really well, shorter wheelbase an all. worked well for the touring car races though, kinda makes you wonder why it was so rubbish on the british roads?
Wasn't it like the easiest car to recognize? F40 looks like any other 1980s car, that Veyron wing looks similar to Hennessey Venom GT wing/ On the other hand the only well-known car that has that weird glass spoiler is TVR Sagaris.
You ever see a R34 Coupe without the spoiler?! It doesn't look complete! Also Detomaso Pantera GT5S is a good Countach impersonator, I love the Pantera more. The Eagle Talons spoiler is another honorable mention.

I was actually expecting the Supra's wing to be in this list
Somehow I forgot 😬
It will be in the Part2, I promise
Same

Countach wing creates lift.
1:28 GAAHH! XD That's a crazy wing!
I read this before I watched the video and o thought you were reacting to the Daytona lmao
God the Sagaris wing was just crazy.
6:12 can we just stop to appreciate the simplicity of this engine bay? Compare this to modern cars and u wonder wtf is filling the space in a modern engine bay.
Computers, computers, computers, computers and....
Even more computers.
Here is what is filling engine bay on modern cars.
I think the hydraulic wing that Zenvo often uses is pretty iconic too! And one of the most iconic but I think most hated spoilers is that front spoiler of the Countach. It's more a meme than something iconic but still XD
Finally some recognition of the TVR Sagaris. It's gorgeous and the wing makes it even better
The last three wings a F40 veyron and TVR.
TJ kett23 tvr sagaris right?
@@erofaeruf8010 yes
GuanZe Liew why does it have a wing like that tho?
@@erofaeruf8010 mostly for looks and function, I suppose.

Sorry for ruining it but.

Title:7 most iconic wings and spoilers on cars
Me*clicks on video*
i was expecting the superbird to be with the daytona because they are sister cars and are almost identical
I think the new Panamera turbo wing will become iconic too one day.
The way it deploys and folds out is some iron man shit
I agree. The Panamera spoiler is basically what the other Porsche needs... I mean, ain't nobody got time for that?

The halo implemented in F1 as well as other formula motorsport is IMO based on the whale tail of the Escort Cosworth but shrinked to fit around the cockpit of a Formula 1 car.
The Escort RS's wing looks amazing to me, it kinda grew on me tho from nfs nitro
I liked it when it was running WRC
How could people hate the ducktail, it's cute
I dont hate IT but its cute for sure
2:10 i love the look of escort back with spoiler and without it but i'm a weird escort owner :D
The escort cosworth concept have 3 wings 😅
Imagine if the 3 wing concept actually got into production
😬
Actually, the Escort's wing was also used by it's bigger and older brother, the Ford Sierra Cosworth RS500.
The bean counters wouldn’t allow it unfortunately it cost too much 🤷🏻♂️

Lmao
Everyone knows theodd1sout
“Blue collar hero” he says while showing a blue escort. *nice*
The spoiler of Escort Cosworth is one of my most favorite because it is kinda beautiful.
It is definitely an evolution of the spoiler from the earlier XR4i Sierra.
When you Mention the Charger Daytona, you should also Mention the Plymouth Superbird.
And the BMW 3.0 CSL Spoiler is missing, one of the most iconic Wings, it even gave the BMW the Name "Batmobil", how could it get more iconic
Plymouth and dodge were under the same company the charger Daytona and super bird are basically the same just different badges and paint jobs

3/3 👍
Yay
No Viper? Some of them giant ass wings!
It was an early contender. Had the script written for it as well, but then again, it is only a big racing wing. Not enough for this list
Never thought about a g string when looking at a cosworth until now. But I will never unsee it and have to say it’s a valid theory.
Ferrari F40
Bugatti Veyron 16.4
TVR Sagaris
Some more cool ones to look up:
Any Porsche GT3 RS or GT2 RS
Mercedes Benz GT R Black Series
Koenigsegg One:1
Dodge Viper ACR

It's Ford Escort, I'm making a video.
You're DEAD!
The signature Mitsubishi Lancer Evo wing was just beautiful
The Cosser was supposed to have a triple tray rearwing originally. Yeah. Wheeler dealers made one as a retrofit. It worked, too
Yesterday I watched a video from the Cosser designer himself, explaining why he wanted it to have 3-tier.
Very interesting video for sure
I like the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution 9 Big

Ferrari f40, Bugatti veyron and TVR sagaris
You’re going to be a bit channel man keep it up!

I never liked the Countach when the spoilers, wheel arches and wide tires were added. The original LP400 styling by Marcello Gandini was stunning and evocative, the later cars just look junky to me.
add a fourth : the zenvo's variable geometry wing..........nice video......
I mentioned it in another video - about active aerodynamics
awesome with the dodge daytona and the last cars are; 1, ferrari F40 2, Bugatti Veyron (ss) 3, sorry could'nt figure that one out
TVR sagaris :)
0:54 Unexpected TheOddsOneOut but I like
Number 3 sucks
6:45 Ferrari F40, Bug-fatty Veyron, TVR Sagaris
You watched Pixar’s Cars the ricer scene? Those are iconic spoilers.
TOO...MUCH...AWESOMENESS
Number 3 sucks
i think that escort wing looks awesome
99 Mitsubishi 3000gt VR4 the last year for the 3kgt featured a 1 yr only front end and spoiler.
You should’ve mentioned the Plymouth superbird when you were talking bout the Daytona
the ford escort rs's wing seemed to be like the ones on the new koenegsegg's
So we’re just not gonna mention the Supra
Number 3 sucks
The detomaso pantera GT5 wing is a cool wing too.

I agree every thing u say bro
.
Number 3 sucks
When one of your favorite TH-camrs uses a clip from your other favorite youtuber
I don't like the mk4 supra, but the spoiler is really cool and iconic
Nobody's gonna talk about the Zenvo TSR-S ?!
Ferrari F40 has the best spoiler ever. It actually improves the car's design. Most spoilers do the opposite.
Escort cozza!! 😂😂 Cozzy mate
Came for the wings, stay for the g-string picture😜
You still check your youtube comments?, Damn Legend
Mercedes 190 EVO comes up to my mind...
I just recently saw a Mercedes CLA 250 with a big wing on the trunk. It looked positively ridiculous! Yes, a CLA 250.
also, having driven a countach i can tell you it was as scary to drive as it was sexy to look at. pretty sure i nearly killed myself a bunch of times too. oh and as you asked, you missed the ford sierra RS COSWORTH. it came before the escort RS COSWORTH just as the escort XR3i came before the fiesta XR2. good old british engineering at its best
Which do you think has more iconic wing, Escort or Sierra?
@@TopCarsTV they're similar but the Sierra is slightly bigger. but, if you want the truth, they are as ugly as all hell! i had the Sierra a few years back (im old so the insurance wasnt as bad). so anyway, had her for a few months and then sold her on. the wing was really a marketing gimmick and didnt work all that well, at least on the Sierra. the Escort was a rally car so worked really well, shorter wheelbase an all. worked well for the touring car races though, kinda makes you wonder why it was so rubbish on the british roads?
I think the Viper ACR (2016) wing was iconic.
I do love the escort rs wing
It took a few seconds to recognize that TVR Sagaris at the very end.
Wasn't it like the easiest car to recognize? F40 looks like any other 1980s car, that Veyron wing looks similar to Hennessey Venom GT wing/ On the other hand the only well-known car that has that weird glass spoiler is TVR Sagaris.
Even tho its kind of a more basic design the Lancer Evo spoilers will always be my favourite
I think the 1998 Toyota Supra deserves an mention.
No
Supra, F40 and Superbird are missing.
how could you not mention the f40's spoiler in a video titled "most iconic spoilers"
Lancia 037 I think is a honourable mention.
the charge daytona and superbird are just sexy looking cars
I see no mention of the iconic "Cobra R" wing. Kinda well known
Number 3 sucks
Imo the Zenvo is missing, that active aero is just amazing
You ever see a R34 Coupe without the spoiler?! It doesn't look complete! Also Detomaso Pantera GT5S is a good Countach impersonator, I love the Pantera more. The Eagle Talons spoiler is another honorable mention.
I was very much expecting the Acr to have a spot with how overly park bench sized that wing is
I like the spoiler of rezvani beast x
Porsche 959 wing is pretty iconic too
Can you imagine going over 200 mph in a Dodge Daytona on bias ply tires? Yikes!!!
