    My VX is NOT GOING OFF ROAD AT ALL. It is a show car, hence the 6 coats of new paint, 8 coats of clear, powdercoat rotors, special LED lighting system (ICE LED UFO, from the UK), and other mods.

    Butterfly doors would just be awesome for my SHOW TRUCK. Someone said earlier about some of us using our VX for ON ROAD and that's what I'm doing.

    By the way, the new BMWi8 also has Butterfly doors (as well as several other vehicles)

    That is by far not the best link, but I'm in a rush this morning and just wanted to post something real quick. I understand the VX was not made for this, but because the Isuzu XU-1 WAS designed for this and is similar to the VX, I thought it may be possible...

    Off course it's possible, just depends on how custom you want to get. The butterfly doors may require an extra hinge on the windshield frame.

    I would call this company:
    http://www.scissor-doors.com/gullwing-doors.php

    They don't show a product for butterfly doors but have several pictures that seem to be what you want.
