I don't know if you ever watch the BBC show Top Gear, but Jeremy Clarkson has this funny mannerism. When he says the word "carbon fiber" he pauses ever so slightly and his voice takes on reverential quality -- the way you might talk to your friend 10 feet away, while visiting Notre Dame.
eg. The entire hood is made of [slight pause] carbon fiber.
