Expensive way to loose the weight.





From the article:
Given three months and 800 man hours went into the build, it won’t come cheap. It will, however, be very light on its feet with the liberal application of carbon fiber stripping 287LBS from the C5’s curb weight.

They could have saved even more weight if they'd left off the ugly ground effects and rear spoiler... ;)

Like a wise man once said: the last 10% (in this case, of weight savings) costs 90%... They can keep it...
