look at the infographic in my post. And indy car has more Cd, however, they produce a ton more downforce, so consider some other variables.

IIRC, my Sedici scores a nice and round .30, while the contemporary, recently facelifted Uno had .32 as well.

half of me is laughing and half of me is impressed. I mean it looks hideous. But he has gone to every detail to make an attempt to improve aerodynamics everywhere on the car.

Also, ive never seen an aeromodded car on the road. Somehow they are very invisible. Or theres only like 20 guys doing this thing.

my sister has an 04 hatch and the hatch part (in the video thumbnail, just under the emblem) gets super dirty very quickly. I guess its the way all the air gets directed around back there. very dirty area.

Not too bad, although the estate is .30.

My old brick is a surprisingly aerodynamic .32. My old VR-4 was a lot less aerodynamic at .39. The Evo X I also owned was a .36 which isn't bad considering it was also a bit of a brick but with a big wing.
