Disappearing Car Door??

Has anyone ever seen this? Mainly the SoCa guys. It'd be cool as hell to get that on our G2 coupes. Disappearing Car Doors: A Revolutionary Concept in Car Technology & Design

thats some pretty neat custom work. I'd like it with an air ride to lift it up and slide the door underneath, but would probably never do either.

Interesting technology. Dumb, tacky and hideous though.

haha...i almost forgot about this...i ended up getting a reply email from them..

"Thank you for your interest in the Retractable Disappearing Door.
The response to our product has been overwhelming.
As we are now in the process of carrying out an R&D program to take our
technology from prototype to production spec, it is difficult to give you a
firm date or cost estimate at this time.
The first vehicles we are converting to our door technology are High-end
2-door coupes.
We will be offering for sale our own Luxury Sports Car with our retractable
car doors next year.
Please watch our website (will be renewed in May) for further information
and vehicles.
We will also put you on our mailing list.

Thank you for your enquiry."
