anyone have the numbers on the saturn sky? W/ the top up, of course, I'm sure it beats the Volt concept.

But, in all honesty, didn't it take GM like 5 or 6 generations of the Corvette to go from "streamlined" to "actually aero" and it still wasn't that good even at that?

Frankly, when I see the older (pre-84) Corvette, I think "wedge of cheese in the wind".
