Ok, but I must be missing something. Does anyone know the percentages of steel, aluminum, and magnesium there are in porsche bodies, or in bodies of any cars, and exactly how these blends of these metals differ from say the fiberglass body of the corvette? Is it the material that makes cars perform better on crash tests, or is it the crumple zones that they have set up, or both?
