Disappearing doors...hmmm, reminds me of the seventies when General Motors station wagons had "clamshell" disappearing two-piece tailgates. Very heavy...complicated....another thing to break on the car. I'd like the manufacturers to work on lightening their cars, rather than making them heavier.

I agree but you know that cars like the Dodge Charger/Magnum will get something like this, it goes well with owners getting those 300lb wheels (each), have you seen the ones with lambo doors
