combos

None of you combos would have as low a drag compared to a conversion to a K-form roofline.
If you're absolutely attached to the notchback form,then you need to look at Hucho's book section on passenger cars,specifically the Figs. 4.63,64,& 65(2nd edition pages 156-7)
If you're looking for really low drag potential the Civics roof will need to look like the Mercedes-Benz 'Boxfish,' concept car.
