My 91 Talon did it as well. It is the curse of long doors on coupes.

"The doors do suck though. You swing too wide."
"And then immediately close on you as soon as you stick your leg out." Are we talking of the FRS/BRZ here ? This is the first car I've ever owned which has four positions of the door. Fully closed, Fully opened, and TWO detents in between those others. And if you can't, at all, in any way, get in/out of the car with the door at it's lst detent from fully closed, you're too fat ! Did I say, this car is perfect, well it is. Last edited by ToySub1946; 04-02-2016 at 09:49 PM. |

LmaO@all the posts!
I've had homeless dudes ask me what kind of car is that. If I see peeps who drive FRS we each say how sexy our cars are or we give the "shaka sign/thumbs up". For me this car is my mid life crisis cuz I'm old.....Hahaha! |

That one kills me. I had the same thing happen when I got the FRS. Coincidentally, it was said by a college aged girl who had her whole tuition paid for by her father and same with her brand new Honda CRV. I couldn't think of anything clever at the time so all I said was "It's call having a job, but you wouldn't know what that is" ....LAAAAME Anyway: Nice Porsche bro Sick body kit bro (thinking it was a 370z) Orange? What a *** It's slow though |

They're just like many other low sports cars. Making them any shorter would make it difficult for many people to get into the car. Short doors work on higher/taller vehicles.
I just drove a Camaro for a week. Same problem with the doors, and it's not even a sports car. But I was used to it. I'm already in the habit of parking off in the back 40 to avoid door dings. Quote:

While I was doing some camera work on the new Kouki 86, a journalist came up to me and asked
"is this the new Prius?"
