    The nose % was calculated dividing the nose length by the car length.

    Its interesting to note:

    * Modern sport cars have steeper windshields than vintage ones, thus they may have shorter noses.
    * The nose length relative to the wheelbase helps the nose look longer. In other words if the car has a big nose relative to its wheelbase, it still looks long even if the car has a long trunk.
