- Weight savings are also small. @scott26 said 200kilos. This article is saying 136 kilos. I think Scott has been bullshitting us for a while with hype. 136 kilo weight reduction seems incremental. I was expecting CFRP to change the game.
Will stay tuned though. Not ruling out buying one but at this point I can't say I won't get a Benz instead.

Since the economic down turn in 2008 there are very few lines left on the road. A better system would read pot holes
