Default Disappearing door anyone?
A slick little trick of moving the door under the car rather than opening out... a concept car that never made it to production. Check out the video...

There was a BMW production car that had a door that lowered, I remember seeing it on Top Gear. Pretty cool stuff.

Makes it much easier to hit the "eject button" for that annoying passenger or +1 while driving

I'd hate to be in the passenger seat if that thing ever got T-boned in an accident. Cool effect though
