Pagani Zonda F spotted in Paris

I like the CF w/out paint

and it doesn't look like bird shit, looks like he hit a bug... the splatter starts at the front of the car and spreads toward the rear. If it were bird shit, it would either have run down the front of the car (because of the angle) or made a radial splatter.

Most technical anti-birdshit rebuttal ever. Thanks for the new user title.

By its true defintion but it is used genrically as well.

Carbon fiber can refer to carbon filament thread, or to felt or woven cloth made from those carbon filaments. By extension, it is also used informally to mean any composite material made with carbon filament; for more on that application, see graphite-reinforced plastic.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_fiber

Carbon fiber reinforced plastic or (CFRP or CRP), is a strong, light and very expensive composite material or fiber reinforced plastic. Similar to glass-reinforced plastic, which is sometimes simply called fiberglass, the composite material is commonly referred to by the name of its reinforcing fibers (carbon fiber), an example of part-for-whole metonymy. The plastic is most often epoxy, but other plastics, such as polyester, vinylester or nylon, are also sometimes used. Some composites contain both carbon fiber and fiberglass reinforcement. Less commonly, the term graphite-reinforced plastic is also used.

Thank you for posting that, i was so stunned by the "carbon fiber is just plastic" that i forgot my 5 years of study on the matter!

"carbon fiber is just plastic" What The ....!!!
