Been playing with wheels on the X5, and just put on a set of F15 X5 wheels.

I see some unusual things during my 70-mile bike ride through Houston on the weekends, someone spent a lot of time on this!

The NSU Ro 80
AutoSpeed - The NSU Ro 80

Quote:
When the NSU RO 80 was released in 1967, the car was greeted with universal acclaim.

Quote:

The claimed drag coefficient was 0.355, a figure then at least 25 per cent better than achieved by a typical car of the same class.
http://www.autospeed.com/cms/article.html?&title=The-NSU-Ro-80&A=112732

Quote:
Initially the demand for the Ro 80 was so high that there was a waiting list...............................

And then, all at once, the whole thing came crashing down.

Simply, the innovative rotary engine proved to have a fearsomely short life.

That was a common Corvette customization back in the 70's. Used to see cars just like that in the car magazines of the day.
