'complete' flow separation

Do you have lots of pictures, or tech references, showing all these cars with flow separation?
1) The conversation has been limited specifically to roofline flow separation. There are other separations, however, they belong in their own thread.
2) If the previous metric of 'post-1990' vehicles still stands, then the following will constitute a sampling of rooflines exhibiting premature separation:
1994 Ford Mustang
1995 Ferrari F355 Berlinetta
2012 NISSA GT-R Black Edition
2012 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1
2012 M-B C63 AMG BLACK SWRIES Coupe
2010 Audi A7 Sportback
2013 Aston Martin Vanquish
2015 Bentley Continental GT3-R
2015 Shelby Super Snake
2015 SCION FR-S
2016 Ford Mustang Shelby GT350R
2016 Porsche Cayman GT4
2016 Cadillac ATS-V
2016 Chevrolet Camaro SS
2017 Porsche 911 Turbo S
2017 M-B GLC Coupe
2019 M-B-AMG GT63 S4-Door
2020 Audi E-Tron
