Comment Aircraft? (Score 1) 347

Seeing as fabric skins have been used on aircraft since the Wright Brothers ( there are still tens of thousands of fabric covered aircraft flying today ) I can't see any practical problems with fabric covered cars. Clearly many car buyers will worry that such a car might be less safe than a steel box, but proper research and marketing will reduce this fear. The real plus point would seem to be the light weight and morphing ability. We can buy a the car pretending we are getting it because of it's fuel efficiency, when in reality we just think changing shape at the lights would be cool. Stuart G
