Aerodynamics

Well heres a topic to seperate the men from the ricers... As you all can guess my Highlander is about as aerodynamically inclined as someone who pees into the wind... that said, lets talk about cars that dont share aerodynamic characteristics with a brick... As some of you may know the coeffecient of drag for a car is related to its aerodynamics. The more aerodynamic, the lower the coeffecient... does anyone know where I can find the coeffecient for different cars? I have seen the calculator for it, but I dont exactly know the frontal area of a Ford Lightning or NSX... and dont tell me body kits/lowering the car helps... I know that already... simply allows less air under the car which lessens the obstructed air which creates less lift (aka downforce) and less drag... yatta yatta yatta... basically I want a list! Anyone help me out here? Im mainly interested in C5 vette and MK4 Supra and any other car that may be more aerodynamic (stock)... thanks
