Do these doors look familiar?

Edit - I know the Saturn SC series came with a suicide third door before anyone points that out, I just thought it was interesting that so many new cars (mostly concepts) have suicide doors like the 8 does.

 

i think saturn has shown a new sedan/coupe with two suicide doors also. and i really like the way those front seats fold all the way back on the honda. plenty of room for me and the wife to... well you know

 

If I could figure out how to post pictures on this site, I will show you the ORIGINAL foru-door car with suicide doors... help

 

at the bottom of the post reply page is a place where you can attach a file. just click browse and find the pic in your comp.that will put a link to the pic. if you want the pic th show in your post, click on the img button in the vb code section. copy and paste the url of the pic in the box that pops up.
what is the car you're thinking of, by the way?

 

for instance here is a 1935 ford sedan. (first one i could think of)

Ladies & Gentlemen:

THE NEW 2004 MAZDA RX-8 (Lancia circa 1950 Edition)

 

Hi Zoom44:

Thanks for the help. Hope you enjoy the picture. It was taken at the Concorso Italiano at Quail Lodge about ten days ago. i almost died when I saw it! Just goes to prove tat there may not be anything really new. In any event, I'm glad that Mazda picked up on it. The RX-8 is KILLER.

 

you said the original four door car with suicide doors. while that is a great pic of the @1950 lancia my pic of the 1935 ford is earlier.:D

 

that Honda element is almost bad as that New Mercedes thing....i dont wanna spend money on a Honda, let alone that looks like it should be delivering my mail :p

 

lol

Good to see you back veloceracing. How is the new Mini?
Can you write up your impressions in the Lounge area?

 

The '35 still has a post behind those doors. The Lancia is 100% open. More like the RX-8.

 

What about all of the pick-'em up trucks that had the suicide door setups before the Saturn did? What does it matter anyway (or does that just take too much of the fun out of it )?

The MINI aint mine no more, I still have the car on order, but something else came to my attention, a 1993 RX7 R1 with 19K miles for an astonishing price :-D so its mine, i go to pick it up when i get my loan squared away, which should be any day this week
