    Can you imagine what would happen if you accidently opened the door on the highway? It would fling open and fucking break off only to bouce down the highway and kill the people behind you.

    Suicide doors are ghey.

      I wouldnt say gay, but definatly for trailer queens or show cars, I have never seen a pair that opened and closed with ease.

      Yes and they would fly off down the road.

      Sold it.

        I mean even if it didn't break off, the drag the open door would create.. all on one side of the car.. you are going to quickly occupy the adjacent lane, or outright spin.

          I don't get your tone Jordan.

          I would fucking love the driver of that car to open the door on the highway, it sounds like a great idea to off himself. Hence the name....

              Hence why hey call them suicide doors. They have that name for a reason. I don't think suicide doors look good on e30's, but on older hotrods and such, they're pretty cool. Then there is that car that was in the movie "The "Matrix" (can't remember name of car :roll: ) They have stock suicide doors.

                    As in, why my post mentioned the Lincoln. Only car I've seen that got it right. ;)

                                Guys I think we are missing the point here, I think its cool that someone in the minitruck scene took interest in an E30 and did the work on one. You often see Mazda, and Toyota trucks at these things. I am sure there was a lot of hard work and custom stuff that went into that car.

                                We all drive our cars for the performance, it’s obvious that this person made a show car and I think we should respect that. I am willing to bet that paint job regardless weather it is ugly or not is way more intricate then any of ours.
