It still doesn't seem to make sense ditching the underbody panel in the top version. BTW when you quoted an underbody panel my first thought was about a crankcase protector instead of something purely oriented to aerodynamics.

I love getting high mileage, sadly I can't afford a hybrid... Prius, CT200h, CR-Z and Civic Hybrid here cost around US$50K. That's just too rich for my blood... Stupid government imposing premium tax for cars with "two engines"... What... The... Fairy...

I'm not a real enthusiast of hybrids, but I believe the so-called BAS-Hybrid setup would be an interesting attempt to circumvent this premium tax.
