Another thing which may have been answered somewhere and I have not seen it yet, has a CD figure been given for the car?

I just went and looked at pictures of the new (now old I suppose) Ford GT and I have to admit that it is pretty impressive how they got the airflow through the back of the car considering the whopping great V8 in there.

I understand that it would have been much easier with the Evija, but hats off to Ford I think.

Going tomorrow but I've already had a sneaky peek. This for me is one of the most remarkable figure from the press release, I'm not sure many have grasped the significance of it yet - 4.4m long,

Anyone here is completely free to dislike the Evija or any other Lotus. If they dislike all Lotus cars and people I would suggest that there are better places to spend their spare time. Criticism

The intention was definitely to sell some to Oz but unclear if it would be LHD. Seems like they had few indication of interest from there at launch.

The McLaren F1 wasn't available in left OR right hand drive. :D

But I think it was registered as LHD due to gear stick placement.

I recall hearing about only LHD somewhere in a launch video I think.

I think it is a bit odd that there aren't a few to be RHD to be available for the UK at least? Or is the target for these Europe and anybody else that drives on the wrong side of the road? :P 

No-one knows the Cd of the Evija?

If I saw that photo without you guys having said it was a GT40, I would not have known. 

I am hoping that is a race car.

And, no, the steering wheel would not have given it away. I would have thought some idiot nicked one and plonked it on their wheel.

So still wondering what the claimed Cd (coefficient of drag) is?

Anyone?
