I just look at this car today in a Hot Rod magazine! I think the frontal area is good, but I wonder how much it weighs.

There's a reason those clear bubble-type roofs don't make it out of the showroom - greenhouse effect.
The T-Flite looks almost aero, but it is big and heavy
Plus the fins...
the front wheels are cool, but what about steering?

It pleases me, aesthetically. I wouldn't want to sit in that car right after it's been sitting in the sun with that canopy closed all day though.
