Thanks in advance.

I just meant that, according to that article from VW's media arm the cD 0.16 attributed to the Sagitta was published in automotive press in the 1950s--well before Hucho's tests, so not a misattribution of his later measurements of Lange car models but a relic of unreliable, older wind tunnel data.

Great clarification. Appreciate it.

Great video, thanks for posting it, and must keep in mind that it is a different car than the subject title.

A belly pan too?
