Answer
Nearly everything is designed for aerodynamic use, especially automobiles and other forms of transportation.
All cars, planes, trains, trucks, and bicycles are designed to have less drag. Even bicycle helmets are designed this way. Less air friction means better gas mileage for you, and with the increasing gas prices, that is quite a good thing.
They have desgined semis that are 50% more efficient than the ones you currently see today, because they are more aerodynamic. Unfortunately, we haven't seen them put into production yet. They do look pretty futuristic in comparison though.
Recently, an engineer built a hybrid car off a light airplane base, it's so aerodynamic and fuel efficient that it gets 300 mpg. You may of seen it in Yahoo! News, it's a great example of aerodynamics.

Have you seen a news story featuring concept cars of the past?

Really very interesting. I was particularly struck by the fact that plexiglas was invented in the '30s. It is the component used in the windshield of Amelia Earhart's plane. On a South Pacific island they have found some that is the thickness and curvature of her windshield.
It was an Internet news story early Wednesday. I think you could look it up by googling "concept cars of the past"
The Amelia Earhart article was a week or so ago. I particularly remembered the plexiglas mention and was puzzled, because I thought it was a later development.
Answer
Which news story? I've read many old car books with the Concept cars, and yes, many had or used Plexiglas in the construction. Haven't heard any news stories on TV lately of the old show cars.
