Calling it a woodie is a bit of a stretch.

The Turbina is a good call. Lower Cd than the Volkhart-Sagitta; but it wasn't a 4-passenger vehicle.

I'd like to see a 3D model that can morph between the Turbina and Volkhart-Sagitta. All the intermediate shapes should have a similar Cd.

No worries.

I think the styling is a result of his sleeping in the paint booth.
