New Optional Assignment

Looking to raise your grade? Already doing the moon project and planning on doing a science fair project, but want more? Here you go - this one's easier and therefore not worth as many points.
Find a vehicle that has had aerodynamic improvements made on its most recent model to allow it to go through the air with less resistance and maximize fuel economy, post links to photos of both versions of the car, and write details about how the alterations improve the aerodynamics. (example = new ford focus will have shutters on the front of the car to make air go around car rather than through the engine, as older models did, and the outside of the car is smoother, giving it less air resistance)... OR (example = Car XXXXX's 2010 model tapers down at the back end, resembling part of the ideal teardrop shape, while the same car's 2006 model did not (links to photos of each))
You may comment on this page with ORIGINAL examples (first to post gets points) or on the discussion board on my facebook page. If you have no computer access, you may bring me photos and a description.
