It's probably got some Speedster-style humps under that bubble.

The rear wing looks interesting, kind of like the Gemballa fixed wing. I bet the rear-most section is a retractable wing that then extends up to mate with the fixed wing to make an even bigger wing at speed. That would be cool... Porsche is doing some neater stuff with wings now. The Panamera has a retractable wing that expands width-wise to get bigger at triple digit speeds. It would be neat for them to do something like the air brake wings though, that's the next evolution.
