it's hard to say, since i have not seen one with 2 doors, but to me the lines of the side view of the car are fine. more importantly, those 2 extra doors are functional. just today i had to throw some stuff in the back seat and it would have been more difficult with only 2 doors.

Don't the front passengers still have to get out to let the rear ones escape from the back seat?

i have not had rear passengers and front passengers at the same time yet but i think that the front door would have to be opened before the back door could be opened but the front passengers would not have to get out.

I wish it were easier for the back passenger to get out. When my kids are in back, the passenger-side kid can't get out himself. I have to open the passenger side front door for him, then he can open the passenger back door himself. Also, the spine down the middle makes it harder for the kid to get out from my side. I love the spine though. Kind of seperates the kids.

No.

You need to *open* the front door though before you can open the rear one.
