I find that .26 very hard to believe. The down force of the GTR is IMMENSE. Formula 1 cars (per wiki) range from .7 to over 1, how can it have such an incredible Cd, yet be held down so powerfully?
This article is exactly what I mean:
2009 Nissan GT-R - First Drive Review - Car Reviews - Car and Driver
"Nissan claims the GT-R generates more than 176 pounds of downforce at 186 mph. At both ends. According to wind-tunnel tests by the German magazine Sport Auto, few production cars are better, and those few—the Bugatti Veyron, the Mercedes SLR McLaren, and the Porsche Carrera GT—cost a lot more than the $70,475 base price the GT-R will command when it reaches the U.S. this spring."
So which is it, Datsun? ( I do love the GTR, but these two claims together don't pan out. Is there something more to this?)
