Default New kind of door

I'm thinking of having this mod done to my Mustang: http://www.disappearing-car-door.com/

NOT!

wow that thing is just scary. when the door goes down it looks so fake like the door is a painting...not saying it is, just saying it looks like it cuz of the smoothness in how it operates. wonder how reliable that thing really is.

Just thought of something: ummm....what if there were snow on the car?

Wouldn't at least some of that fall into the car when the door was opened?

"eliminates door dings" ha what about the jackass that parks next to you that doesnt have this fancy *** **** and knocks the hell outta your car..... The only thing it eliminates is you being able to be the one shelling out the damage...

Doesn't seem like there could be enough room for that under the car. Where would your exhaust go? It would have to be very model specific... re-engineered for each car and very costly for the benefits derived. Not very impressive. This concept would stymy the design of cars because everything would have to be based on having room for that contraption.
