CAC attempt #2

Okay, it was the right-click after the left-click before 'copy' which made the difference.
Then simultaneous Ctrl plus V
Thanks to all for the help!
I don't know if GAC will actually do the car. If they do, and it sells, it may trigger a response from the legacy carmakers.
A look at the McLAREN Speedtail and Bentley EXP 100 is moving in the direction of the 1985 Ford Probe-V, Cd 0.137 architecture, favoring the longer aft-body; a mandatory requirement for the lower drag.
It's an interesting development.
PS Also, take a look at the plan-view ( top- down ) image of the GAC. You'll notice the 1938 'Lange' car body taper, also critical to pressure recovery and low drag.
PS: I mistyped the title header. It should read ' GAC', not CAC.
