Pay more for a carbon fiber performance version? I like the thought of that -- lighter, faster, better range for a price. But that would also mean making the manufacturing process more complex instead of less. I don't see it happening, although I'd really like to.Yeah. I was going to say those weight targets look REALLY optimistic. If it is going to be steel, I'd count on more like 3,500-3,800 lbs. My guess is it's going to be a mixed-metals vehicle. Aluminum hood, roof, liftgate, steel fenders and unibody. There's a chance there could be some use of carbon fiber, but at the price targets they're looking at, I'm thinking it's going to be very small amount, and possibly only on the higher-performance/price models.
