Aerodynamics of X6 vs. all other. .SUVs?!?

1 SAC vs. all other SUVS. ..

Anybody knows if Aerodynamic Coefficient for the X6 is better than the ones for the Cayenne or Touareg, or all other Infinity's, Mazdas CX-7,9, Lexuses, etc. ?!!?

Just wondering if it's better in numbers. ..it certainly looks a looot better than the other germans,.. .don't know if it can match the Mazda CX-7 . .

Did a quick google on that, didn't find yet a comparative list for SUV's. . .Drag coefficient, 0.330 for the X6. .is that better than SUV competitors?? It's 7 AM here, and dead tired. . if no one can fill up the rest of competitors' figures, I'll google it again later, after sleep. .

PS: My Bimmer dealer friend said: Did you look better at that Touareg you drove?? Did you expect a better MPG from that shape of a SUV??
