The Aerocivic gets a web site - Aerocivic.com
Darin (MetroMPG) was gracious enough to make up a web page about my car explaining its history, performance, and features. I put the lettering "AEROCIVIC.COM" on my car's boattail, so those interested could satisfy their curiousity.

Not nearly as much work as went into the car!
I'm more than happy to help raise its profile. It's well deserved for both the inspiration to other modders & educational value to those who will see the URL and look it up.
FYI, the Aerocivic website was already picked up & featured on TreeHugger today:

FYI, the original poster on this french language forum gets it: fuel economy and improved "performance" (of the enthusiast rag definition). You can tell by the thread title:

ABG has picked it up as well. I love their description:
"the Aerocivic site is truly an enthusiasts' source for people who want to know what it's like to live in the aerodynamic future."
Haha.

Still getting lots of love from other sites. I like this comment from Green Daily:

So what if I told you that two of the most effective mileage enhancers were plywood and bondo. OK, not necessarily those two (they were just the first two to come to mind), but according to the creator of the Aerocivic: aerodynamics is everything.
