Actually the Coupe would benefit greatly from turning the ailerons into flaperons. With limiting them to just a small downward deflection (what most people would think of as 1 notch of flaps) they would increase lift, nice for takeoff on a short or rough strip, wouldn't really be much of a benefit on landing. In a reflexed position would reduce drag. Reduced drag is always good. Seems like a win win situation.
