Another cool thing about the GT’S aero? Those flying buttresses that link the roof to the rear fenders are sneaky wings, being aerofoil shaped in profile. And there’s more.
After passing through the intercoolers in the rear fenders, air is vented out through the centres of the ring-shaped tail lights. We’re not sure about the aerodynamic benefits of that, but tail lights with hot breath have to be a first.
