I hope it continues to grow, can't get enough of it. Can't wait to see the next big thing it will supply us with.

That car is absolutely gorgeous

I used to feel the same way, especially in the early 2000s with the influence of the Fast and the Furious. These days, it seems, more companies are making REAL CF products, CF is more prevalent in exotic cars, and the weaves are at a higher quality. What does that mean? The more the better imo.

I agree. I just don't get it. :headbonk:

It would be nice if the article would of stated weight differences.

Way too much of a good thing. CF is great for accents on these cars, but for my tastes, way too much.

I think it mentions over 600 pounds reduction.

You don't get a material is stronger than steel but much lighter? Ok.

I've seen that car in person.
Awesome! And if you don't want it, check your pulse.

It actually looks better than I thought it would.

I was expecting some real-life version of all the cars I tastelessly modified in "Midnight Club 3: DUB Edition" that were nothing but bare carbon fiber haha. I went through a phase, luckily long before I could ever do something like that to a real car.

For me, fully bare carbon bodywork only looks good in a few cases. The Pagani Zonda R comes to mind.

My car has a carbon roof, hood and trunk. If it didnt it would probably weigh around 3600lbs. Steel frame and big ass v10. I love CF, and hope it becomes more mainstream. We all win if this happens.

Its like supercharging the v8, now that nearly all manufacturers do it, we have plenty of choices!
