Does anyone know what the drag coefficent is for our Civics?

Hmmmm..I guess that's something I never oput much thought into, I guess
because my Civic doesn't break the sound barrier that often. [IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG]

But I have no clue....what exactly did you want to know for...if you are worried about air obstruction coeffecient
it would be better to focus on weight and weight distribution.

I'm just comparing our cars to other cars and wondering what mods would help reduce the aerodynamic drag on our cars.

our cars are pretty sleak, they dont have alot of unnecessary crap to hold it back (helps mpg too). probably lowering and a kit would make this car drift like crazy, unfortunately, i dont have either yet. as far as the numerical value, ill doubt you actually obtain a number. good luck though

I don't know about our civics but my CRX Si has a coefficint of drag of .32....ours should should somewhere near there...

Dammit, i read it somewhere, it was about .6 more than the Insight. It was very good.

.3-something..... the 2001 corolla was something like .31 i remember from the brochure

"The Insight's lightweight aluminum body and reinforced frame are 47-percent lighter than a comparable steel body and have superior bending and torsional rigidity. And its highly aerodynamic body has one of the lowest coefficients of drag (0.25) of any mass-produced automobile."

So if the Insight is 0.25 then our Civics should be about 0.31.

Thanks for the info guys!
