Some of them pop up at much lower speeds - I think the Porsche 911 and
Audi TT spoilers pop up at 40 mph.

I remember reading about this. In Germany, they deploy at the proper
speed of 90 mph, but in the UK where the speed limit is 70 mph they come
up at 50 mph to allow the owner to show off, it's a sales gimmick.
