      All the inner structures in the steel Camaro body are designed to add strength to sheet metal. I doubt any of that structural design would be optimum for a CF body. I would agree that the inner structure needs to have the same attachment points but I suspect it would look significantly different once the design is optimized for CF.

      That said, I find the idea of a CF subframe to be a VERY interesting concept which I would actually be more interested in than a body. A CF subframe would go a long way toward reducing weight and if you got Ron Sutton involved in the design process to lay out the suspension geometry, I think it would be a really unique and attractive product that would sell in significant numbers.
