Maybe Eni or Scott can confirm my thoughts on it being cosmetic here?

** Edit: Just curious guys, where exactly is the antenna for the 6er and 3er cabs? .. and why couldn't the 1er cab have it so well hidden like its older siblings?

When the 3er cab was being tested it had the shark-fin on the bootlid like the 1er cab has, but the production ready 3er cab no longer had it. Confusing.
