I still haven't seen any firm price numbers on these cars yet, and I think there are a few in customer's hands already in the U.S.

Is there really a weight savings by switching to "carbon fibre" stripes?

[Parkway Ford Lincoln SVT]

Rather than having actual painted or tape stripes, they are now exposed carbon fibre. A few ounces here and there add up I guess they're figuring.

Stephan, if you have seen it there's not much to eliminate from the standard the interior is pretty race car stock.
