CF would have been sweet but glass would just add more weight. I can see how BMW would do glass over CF though. It looks like they're trying to widen their market base by appealing to new types of customers rather than just sticking with the old performance oriented crowd. The new Z4 itself is a good example as a car that's closer to SLK (looks w/o the performance) than Boxster (performance). Another example is all the M Performance packages that are mostly just looks and no performance.
