with 330bhp, RWD and FOOK all weight over the back wheels, I can imagine you'd NEED a spoiler on the motorway

But at that extreme angle, the airfoil will be stalled and not doing anything.

Once you go more than about 18 degrees (roughly) airfoils stall and don't do much of anything, so the one on there is purely ornamental.
