not a car
True.
And as a car, its fineness ratio would be a bit excessive.
The Cambridge University Eco Racer ( CUER ) of 2013 is 'shorter' and more 'carlike'. And, at twice the drag of the U-2's radome, it's aligned with what ground proximity values would be for Cds reported by Hoerner.
And CUER's Cd 0.11 aligns well with the baby template, which suffered a bit from 'gappy' wheel fairings and loss of rear knife edges ( to allow for taillights and license plate).
These ichthyoid forms are hard to beat.
