This is a video on how a BMW, using carbon fiber parts are made.  This involves a lot of robotics and would not be possible in the PHL where labor is cheap.  But the processes here are amazing.  Carbon fiber represents an amazing energy savings from smelting. Carbon fiber parts are strong and light.  And being light, they save a lot of energy in cars (fuel consumption) and they save tremendous amount of energy comes recycling time.  Steel consumes a lot of energy.
