This stuff is interesting -- surely must have some automotive applications... Seems like something the Stranos and UMIs of the world should be investigating...

Liquid Metal's amorphous metal alloys has unique atomic structures, used to create products that are stronger, lighter, and resistant to wear and corrosion.

The metal alloys owned by Liquidmetal Technologies were developed by a research team at the California Institute of Technology, and their amorphous, non-crystalline structure makes them harder than alloys of titanium or aluminum.

That's pretty neat, but I'm not sure what that specific property would make it good for. Maybe lighter sheetmetal that won't bend as easily? Pistons? Wheels?
