I agree totally with what he was saying there. You wouldn't fit fiberglass panels and leave them looking like they just came out of the mold just so people knew it was there. That would make the car look pants. So why do it with carbon fiber? yes it is dramatically lighter than steel or alloy but is it really that much of a fashion item to have a big deal made of it? I would't buy that new M3, plainly because the roof looks cack and unfinished.
