Default Drag coefficient

Anybody know the drag coefficient on the S2K? I know when I bought a new 1990 Accord it had the lowest DC on the market. At this time DC was a big deal since all car makers strived for low DC thinking the improved gas mileage from a low drag car was a big marketing item. All cars posted their DC. This measure of performance has dropped drastically over the last 10 yearrs and is likely the result of increase in HP and lack of concern for MPG. Just curious. (Marketing cars baffles me)
