    If you have ever lifted a complete Maverick/Comet door off a car, I think it would make you reconsider...
    How do they work anyways? the front would have to come out quite a bit to clean the fender, then you have to bend over backwards when your getting out, weird...

    i think lambo style hinges are kinda cool on some cars. But I have 2 major problems with them. Number 1, for spending at least 1k on something it needs to do more for me than stick up in the air at a parking lot/car show, no one see's it runnin down the hwy! Number 2, the worst part is, EVEN with high dollar kits, your door gaps NEVER align properly. I am a major "attention-to-detail" person and if a body line/gap is off then to me itll never be worth a crap. not hatin entirly though, i highly considered it for my sn95 vert

    Oh yeah, now all the car would need is gold trim around the windows and a quartet of 28 inch rims.

    ITs awkward as hell. We have a Magnum with lambos that comes into work. Dont even think about leaving the door open. Its a death trap. The corner of the door would hit you right in the face. At least I know it would hit me in the face. I know I'd hurt my self if it was my car. Just a matter of time.:cry::cry:

    Suicide doors would be cooler, if one feels that they absolutely must do something like that...
