If you bear in mind VW's 1-liter car you could easily reach Cd 0.15.If you move the wheels out away from the chassis,mono-posto style and carefully fair in all suspension and wheels,you might squeeze Cd 0.11 as with Sylph.Go to the fish section of your supermarket and buy a frozen mackerel.You can take all your dimensions from that and scale it up.
