What material do you prefer your car body to be made of?

Carbon Fiber never trailed. From the earliest votes to the final tally it held the lead outright, closing at 44.4% (2,990 votes) — more than Aluminium, Steel, and every other option combined. No rival ever mounted a real challenge; this wasn't a photo finish, it was a runaway.

The fight for silver is where it gets strange: a joke entry, "Car Town Pixels!", pulled 10.4% (697 votes) — enough to beat three legitimate materials, Wood (6.4%), Polyurethane (5.8%), and Fiberglass (5.5%). Aluminium (16.3%) and Steel (11.2%) held the real podium, but pixels outvoting wood is the poll's true upset.

• Wire-to-wire leader · Carbon Fiber led from day one straight through to the final vote.
• Blowout margin · 44.4% for Carbon Fiber vs. 16.3% for second-place Aluminium.
• Joke option upset · "Car Town Pixels!" (10.4%) outpolled Wood, Polyurethane, and Fiberglass.
