Hi All,

The picture on the first page is not the .25 Cd LS-430. There is one of the newer ones in my work parking lot most days. Its much more aero-looking, and even similar looking to the Fusion Aero. First off the grill work is allot smaller. And there are wheel dams, like on the Prius et al. Which tends to obviate the effect of the wheel spokes. At least a little bit. One of the more obvious aero features on the LS-430 is the rear trunk lid shape, which is scooped out and blends perfectly in with the surounding body work.
