Default "Rolling" doors anyone?

Pretty cool. Not something I'd do to any performance car of course.
But, you have to admit it would be cool getting out of a nice car with those in front of a busy club.

That is pretty insane, but yeah i wouldn't do it to my car. I wonder how many looks you will get if you show up at a meet and the doors opens like that.

Damn...I have to admit, that is pretty neat. Pretty much means thieves have to break glass to get in... Until the smart ones find the wires they need to short to make the doors go down. haha.

Still a cool *** concept though. I saw something not at all as cool as that at the philly car show. But a navigator (i think) had step bars on the sides that slid down and out when you opened the door, and then tucked back up against the rocker when you shut the door. Thought that was pretty neat.
