It is kind of a curse to be interested in aerodynamics.
Tiny details of car shapes grab your attention as you walk through parking lots.
You can’t float down a river without noticing unusual eddies.


lol, I doubt one tenth of one percent of the vehicles you see in the parking lot are non-aerodynamic. Aerodynamics have been a focus at least since I bought my brand new 86 Daytona.

My 2015 535i has a lot of aero tricks you are not likely to notice stumbling thru the parking lost. Grille shutters and belly pan come to mind.
