I try to park far away too. But it doesn't help much if the parking lot is crowded, and someone parks reeeeally close to you when you're ready to leave.

I would like someone make a double hinge for this car, because as it is, it's really hard to get in an out unless the door is completely open. It's something I can live with but the only shitty thing about it is accidently slamming the door in a car parked next to me (or my house lol).

Sounds like a functional mod to me lol.

Although I am not interested in this particular mod, your statement holds true for many.. In my experiences. Since I don't care much for social acceptance, I do what I want to my own car. Everybody should too.

I think they look nice, but have you ever tried getting into a faux lambo door car? Much more difficult than it looks, and the door is always in your face. It's more for "image" than functionality. I've gotten into two cars with lambo doors. They were easy to get in and out of with a normal door but annoying with the lambo door.

Now what I'd LOVE to see is suicide doors! I've loved every single entry and exit from a car with suicides, it just makes much more sense to leave forward in the car with support from the door and enter your butt backwards into the car like a movie theatre seat.

What if... Instead of Lambo style doors, Koenigsegg style doors? Same concept, but the Koenigsegg opening looks so much better. (Not that I'd put either on anyway)

No, seriously it looks practical O.o;
Agreed. Functional, though not necessarily cool looking. I have a pain in the ass time getting in and out of the car unless the window is rolled all the way down...

I'm not even an old man with a bad back, just a young man who hates having to go around the damn window.

The only function is the ability to not hit the car next to u. Getting in and out will be HARDER to try to squeeze around the bottom edge of the door (as stated above) PLEASE go to import car show near you, find 5 NOT sponsored / tuner shop built cars with lambo door kits, and ask to try opening, getting in, closing, opening, getting out of each one. If after this, u still want these doors on ur frz, then go for it, but dont forget the neon underlights, washer nozzles, and license plate frames.

i think the reason why people may like it is because it doesnt show the windows when they are put down like that civic. But eh to me it looks alright to be honest. But i wouldnt do it because of the bad attention lol instead id put that money for performance

Only on the "entry level" Gallardo. The Murcielago, Aventador, etc., continue to use vertical or "scissor" doors.

Suicide or Koenigsegg style doors would be cool to see. I did suicide doors on my Ranger, and I think they look bad azz.
