That thing needs an air dam real bad. The nose is way too high.
The rear window is just a bit too steep, which imho is the worst you can do. Make it real steep and it would cause less drag.
It is a long car - length has no effect on Cd, it just adds more surface to have drag on -and I bet the underside is one big aerodynamic mess.
The wing just enlarges the wake.
Cd 0.4? They must have been doing something right too then!
