It passed me while I was watching the cruise in front the car audio shop where I used to work. The doors dropping below the car as it passed was definitely something to see.

You are one step away from being locked up inside a sardine can. According to someone who said they saw this car up close & personal, once the doors go under the car, there is zero clearance, so if you park over a rock or a bottle or a can or anything & open the remaining door .... CRUNCH! ... And that's assuming that you perfectly follow the start up instructions Steve's comment linked to! Can you imagine having to jack up the whole car just because your remaining  door is all jacked up on a rock underneath it? LOL!  BTW - where is the jack on that car, anyway - under the trunk hydraulics?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[PJ]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 12th 2007 10:08PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on "Disappearing door" Lincoln concept turns up on eBay]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/11/disappearing-door-lincoln-concept-turns-up-on-ebay/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/11/disappearing-door-lincoln-concept-turns-up-on-ebay/</guid><description><![CDATA[Pretty cool car for the A-team.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[jorgemsousa]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 12th 2007 11:39PM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
