As cool as it looks, wouldn't the bare weave deteriorate after prolonged exposure to the sun?

Hi TT, on one of your pictures you can see a little bit from a BMW 2002 Turbo:


Do you have some pictures from this car or can you take some?? ops:
I'm a real addict when it comes to BMW's 2002

Thanks in advance!

I think you can clearcoat over it to prevent fade. Anyone know more about this.

What if you drove it daily to your great Ivory Tower down town and wanted to park it in the window... for everyone to see.

bare carbon is rough .. very rough ..... you can see the reflection on the car because it is laminated

you can see the weave in "bare" carbon ..... if its not polished and painted/laminated .. just like on the F40 and racing cars

Nope, sorry, didn't take any pic but I was amazed by the conditions of that 2002. Looked like new! Sorry!

Uhm.. being a 20'000 € option or something like that, I am sure there is the needed protection for the thing not to deteriorate because of sun exposure

The sound of the door shutting (and it's lightness) were :good: too.
Compared to the Enzo, again, the Zonda feels more special, I don't know how to put it, but while in the Enzo you smell Ferrari air, which is is great, but it reminds you "lesser" models, the Zonda is unique, it's a supercar and there is no entry model, it is overstyled for many, but IMO it's pure cool
Thanks!

amazing :shock: 8)

LOL, your Zonda-F pics start at #99 and most of us haven't ever seen a F on the roads

Thanks for this rare shooting, must have been a blast 8)

I still don't like the stylish interiour, the dashboard is confising complicated .. the middle console, the buttons and the gear stick are acceptable.
the carbon outfit suits very well, puristic, exotic :good:
