0.33
0.32
0.31
We all know that the VX has slightly better aero with the passenger mirror delete and the rear undertray thingie, so that's where (I belive) the 0.31 is coming from.

The Road & Track article ( I'll have to find the issue ) stated that the VX was actually slightly lower than .31
, but did not give an exact amount.
The
sedan was a .32 which has always puzzled me, since I would think that the wake would be much smaller on a sedan.
Darin, I sensed that you were a little angry at my post earlier concerning trust of published .Cd figures.
I wasn't saying anyone here was lying about their .Cd, but rather that I was wondering how reliable that published .Cd figures are since, as we have seen, they tend to flutuate even from professional sources.
