Why no carbon?

Also, I wonder if the whole carbon craze has peaked. It's been all about carbon add-ons for the past 10 years but I actually prefer the Emira's gloss black.

I've been over the aesthetic of carbon fiber for 20 years. Hell, it was only cool for a few years around 1995 when the McLaren F1 debuted.

It can look good in some instances, if it's the good looking stuff. I don't like the particle board look. The real benefit is its strength and weight for those applications where it's appropriate. It's just expensive, but if you have the budget...

As others have said, I think there's a good chance we'll see future editions with carbon, suspension and powertrain options. The good news is that you can build an Emira today with carbon seats, carbon trim, carbon aero, Ohlins suspension and a tune that will outperform an Evora GT430 if you have the budget and don't want to wait around.

yeah the one thing I care about being OEM is the carbon roof
