Lol, 0.02 difference in cd is not going to make a significant difference. I spent many of a day messing with wind tunnel work during my college coop. No point pissing over that small of a difference

well all recent cars are between .20 and .40 so if it didn't matter why would they bother mentioning it?

makes no difference at low speeds, but makes a ton at high speeds

edit:
although apparently the bugati veyron has a drag coefficient of .41 which drops to .36 in top speed mode so maybe its not that important

Don't forget you've got better airflow too. Probably looking at .259999 instead of .26.

^+1. I'm quite sure a G35 sedan would become VERY unstable above 200.

^As opposed to?
Is the "coupe better than sedan" train of thought now based on actual fact rather than opinion?
Because I could innumerate plenty of factual, quantifiable reasons that the sedan is "better" but not only is that far beyond the scope of this thread, it's also a subject that's been beaten to death. So you can either drop it (in this thread) or go put your 2 cents in any of the other 10,000 stupid threads on the topic.
