It helps with improved aerodynamic braking.

The alibi "he needed killing" comes to mind.

Suicide doors look cool on 50/60's street rods, but totally out of place in this arena.

I was driving though town the other day and saw a car with lambo front doors and suicide rear doors... I wanted to jump out, pull my P229 and put him out of his misery.

Pull your P229 and put him out of his misery? I find you reference to shooting another human being disturbing at best. You should pull it out and put the "car" out of it's misery instead.
