I keep seeing this commercial for the big Lexus.  They are in a wind tunnel, and this large apparatus grabs the car, and turns it upside down.  They have the fan on and of course the smoke...  They show that the smoke trail does not break up for a good bit of the length of the car, due to the dimples in the under body panels...  I am sorry, I do not know what model (don't drive the rice, really nice or not)...  :-)
