I'm glad I'll be able to safely get in and out of my normally aspirated doors for years to come.. not as showy, but nobody notices when the doors are closed and the car's moving anyways :P

only if you're short or want to sit on the dash... someone like me where the seat is pushed back to the b pillar, suicide doors would be a pain in the ass... would be throwing myself back into the seat and trying to pull myself far enough forward to clear the door opening.

I like it, but can't help thinking that scissor doors look better on the Focus.
Daily driver 1: 2007 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Sport "S"

33" BFG Mud-Terrain KM2s, lots of Rough Country gear - bumper, 2.5" lift, swaybar disconnects, Superwinch 10,000lb winch, Detroit Locker in rear D44 axle, custom exhaust, K+N filtercharger, Superchips-tuned.

Daily driver 2: 2006 Subaru Legacy GT

COBB Stage 1+ package - AccessPort tuner, COBB intake and airbox. Stage 2 coming shortly - COBB 3" AT stainless DP and race cat, custom 3" Magnaflow-based exhaust and Stage 2 COBB tune.

Yeah looking at the pics again, I'd go with scissors before that but regardless, still pretty unique, obviously completely custom. The car is WAY overdone though in general, to much going on.
