I noticed modern Porsche mirrors are 1 soup can longer than the typical brick shaped mirror, I wonder how much drag that cuts out. With the 911 coming in at Cd 0.27 with ginormous 275 width tires, they have to be doing something right.

There's a lot of competition for Porsche customer dollars/euros/ etc.. and I suspect that Porsche owners have expectations that they have kinda leading -edge technology on their cars,including the mirrors.So I suspect that what we see is quite intentional.
I'll look at their mirrors next time.But I agree with your assumption.0.27 is really a coup,considering where they've been since 1939.
