Nice, but what the hell does it need a roof vent for, much less two of them. One in the front and one in the rear of the roof. Also, the doors are atrocious. I don't get why they call them gull-wing doors since they are not. These are gull-wing doors:



I also think that the fog lights up front are a little too much. It looks more like an after thought than something that flows nicely. Kind of like a "what the hell else can we stick on this".

So aren, why don't you tell us what you REALLY think!

i like the door!! love it love it!!
and the roof scoop and the sideskirts!!

Aren, the reason it is called the gull-wing door is because the interior of the door is facing the floor.
that's a gull-wing door.

Actually Steve, Aren is correct. Gullwing doors are hinged on the roofline of the car mimicking a seagulls wing movement.

Unfortunately, these doors are neither gullwing nor lambo. Lambo doors have a more vertical movement. The doors appear to swing outward which in my opinion is not practical at all.

If you look at the way these doors open you would be hard pressed to open them in a parking space to get out of the car...bad idea...

However, I actually like the car minus the graphics, roof scoop, tip tronic tranny and the door style that they chose. I would however be open to a true lambo style door on the car...

I agree, the graphics gots to go and the scoop and yes, perhaps the true lambo door would look nice!!
