  1. You should travel to Munich or Berlin, where the last two "Rumpler Tropfenwagen" are ... which was produced ~1924 (or so) and held the record for "best air-drag coefficient of a production vehicle" until some time in the 70s. It was designed by an airplane designer, which is why it looks like a (symmetrical) wing from the top. Apart from that it wasnt really a good car, because the shape doesnt allow for storage space ... and many of them (only slightly more than 100 were made) got destroyed (on purpose) in the making of Fritz Lang's movie METROPOLIS. That being said ... I could see an adaptation of the principle with modern technology: - the driver sits in the middle ... thus right-/left-hand drive doesnt require any changes - it could be modified with "tilting technology" to make it a "sporty" car - the outlying wheels would need covers ... but that could become something "inspired by F1 cars"
