Anyone knows the drag coefficient of the beetle and super beetle?

I think it is .48 for a flat screen beetle and .47 for the curved screen Supers.

there are actually two drag coefficients
Cd which is 0.47 and 0.48 for supers and normals respectively and the most important the Cda where the frontal area of the car comes into play Cda is Cdxa where a is the total frontal area (in square meters) in some book i had found Cda to be around 0.9-1.0 Chris

0.01 difference, not much at all, is it? Has anyone tried making a flat pan under the car, to add to down force?
