Yes, at high speed. But the drag-lessening effect is minimal, especially when you consider rolling friction of tires, drag-inducing protruberances like rear-view mirrors, spoilers, etc.

On aircraft they can reduce fuel consumption noticeably in the long-run, averaged over several trips, but in a car I doubt you'd ever notice any gains in mileage or speed at all.

Yeah, they are quite useful on jet aircraft.

Probably not worth it unless you plan on fitting a jet engine into your 8.

Ugh I think I see many 09's and shaved sharkfins in the near future
Maybe it's just me, but It just looks like it was stuck on the car with 3m adhesive, like a pep boys item.

I still don't like it, and and they probably put a hole in the roof to make sure you could never take it off... Still, it is a better place for a sat radio reciever.
