Carbon Fiber Car?
Over the years I have seen more and more Carbon Fiber parts for cars(mirrors,hood, trunk, fenders, etc.)
What I wanna know is when will we see a totally carbon fiber bodied car? Or is there already one out there? Post some pics if there is please.

Thanks but I just saw that sight before I posted this thread.
And the cars are only mostly Carbon Fiber. I wanted to find a totally Carbon Fiber Car.

They are the same company. just like... Honda = Acura Only Lexus and Acura are more luxury and expensive.

See, what I'm tryin to say is an IS300 is not as good as the RS200. Besides the fact that it has about 50 horses less it is also missing a lot of performance features overall. I think the one in America is also known as a AS200 while the IS300 is credited to Europe, don't ask me why on that one. So don't treat me like a kid when I say Altezza doesn't=IS300, I know my Altezza which is actualy my dream car right now (approachable dream), and maybe if I was rich I could buy a slew of tires along with it to begin drift sessions.
