Cool idea, but I don't think the window frames would be sturdy enough to support the lower door weight, but a bit of metal fabbing could remedy that, I am sure.

keep dreamin.
If you don't mind making the windows useless, split the door in half. Have the lower half fold down like a private jet's steps.

Yeah, Lambo (scissor I think they are called) would be REALLY kewl... and I've looked at an RX-7 thta had them done... its doable for any car... there is a company that makes the hinges that can be basically installed into ANY car with a decent amount of enginuity and skill. Who's gonna do it?! TTYL!Originally posted by MZ-N10

They sell cheapo "lambo door" kits for $40 now.

A buddy of mine is doing them on a lifted H2 Hummer with a 16" lift kit and 42" tires. I will post some pics when they are done. He told me that they can done for the VX. Push out and up!

How about suicide doors?
Super VXer
I am willing and able to do the "Lambo", where do I get the kit?
Super VXer
Is this too dorky?
I want "van doors." You know, like the side passenger door on a van. Pop out a couple of inches and then slide back (or slide forward). Would make it tons easier to get in and out of the VX in a tight parking space (since I have cladding, I generally don't worry about door dings and can park in the teeny tiny spaces with little fear).
Anyone know why no car (at least that I have heard of) has had "van doors" as the primary door type? Are they just less reliable or just nobody thought of it?

I'm down with WyrreJ, I vote van doors... Was thinking of doing this mod using parts from a Dodge Caravan if I ever can afford it. It would set nicely.
Scissor doors are nice but the door needs to be narrow... When you open the door it looks like the the front bottom corner of the VX door would be at about the seat bolster. That's no good.
Suicide doors would be the easiest way to go, but I think the look is too ol' school for the VX.
Just my thoughts.

Like the-??? Senku???- Mazda RX-8/9 concept this year. Down with the shape but, shove the rotary engine. The doors are decidely cool, but damn hard to replicate on a VX

PS - VCAMILO - your "vxavitar.jpg" in your .sig is really ticking me off. You've got some sort of password on that file so it won't load, instead it pops up a login box that has to be manually dismissed every time I load a thread that you've posted in. I'm sure it is happening to everyone else too. Very rude dude.
