Found this earlier and it took me on a Kamm tail journey. Feel free to post your favourite. Wiki says: A Kammback is a car body style that derives from the research of the German aerodynamicist Wunibald Kamm in the 1930s. The design calls for a body with smooth contours that continues to a tail that is abruptly cut off. This shape reduces the drag of the vehicle. Some favourites: 250 GTO Alfa TZ2 Shelby Daytona

Bizzarini had to take it to the max and gave us the 250 Breadvan.

Another Alfa: Series 105 Spider. The initial Spider was called the Duetto, or as it is nicknamed, the Boattail Spider. The series 2 got it's tail chopped...and is called the Kammtail spider.
