Carfolio - Insta specs - ?

Looking around the intranets for the Cd value of my new project car, I stumbled onto this site Carfolio it has detailed specs on many cars, down to front/rear weight ratios and Cd specs.

Might be a handy guide for people to check weight distribution or whatever.

Nice find! Too bad it doesn't have the frontal area specs for my whip.

I can't vouch for all the specs of course, but they seem to be factory specs, not what people submit.

My 91' Golf has a drag coefficient of .300 for starters, and a frontal area of :

2.03 m² = 21.8507 ft²
OR 21 ft² and 122.506 in²

Can that be right?
21. 8 square feet? Holy crapola.

Dradus -

This is very cool. They don't have my Saturn, but I have a 1997 brochure, so maybe I will add those specs to the site.

Thanks for the info. Unfortunately, I can't find my car.

Bookmarking as an example of how NOT to organize a website :/

Thanks. That's because you've made sites as big that are so much easier to navigate, right?

Probably the largest website that I've done isn't quite that large. I'm doing other things these days. Is that your site? I can give you some of my ideas if you'd like
