  Exploring stellar models which ignite carbon off-center (in the mass range of
about 1.05 - 1.25 Msun, depending on the carbon mass fraction) we find that
they may present an interesting SN I progenitor scenario, since whereas in the
standard scenario runaway always takes place at the same density of about 2 X
10^9 gr/cm^3, in our case, due to the small amount of carbon ignited, we get a
whole range of densities from 1 X 10^9 up to 6 X 10^9 gr/cm^3. These results
could contribute in resolving the emerging recognition that at least some
diversity among SNe I exists, since runaway at various central densities is
expected to yield various outcomes in terms of the velocities and composition
of the ejecta, which should be modeled and compared to observations.
