Lambo doors are a BAD idea

[Guest Hal]

This is why you should not have lambo doors, just a bad bad idea.

For that rare situation, you're fucked. I remember reading somewhere a long time ago the reason for the vertical opening was because of the car being so low and wide. When in a parking space; if the doors didn't open upward, there was almost no way to get out of the car comfortably(that is with cars parked on the sides).

damn. good thing ive always thought those doors were stupid. who wants to roll out of their car anyway.

Yep. Date on the link is back in August. Still creepy though. They look like maniquins!

So the car rolled but none of the glass broke and you mean o tell me if the car is on fire you can muster enough strengh to break it.

 

Also, a little off topic, but is there some kind of waste gate system on the exhaust?

lets think about it realistically. if you flipped your car and landed on the roof, what do you think the chances are the body would be straight enough for the door to open

 

personally, i HAVE flipped a car, thru the woods, and landed on the roof....pretty much like that lambo, except it was in a 4 door 93 bmw 3.25i. once i got done rolling, the thought to open the door never crossed my mind. i unbuckled my seat belt and crawled right out the window. that car would have never had the door open again after that night

Thats it, NOW I'm not buying a lambo.

The guy was probably knocked out after it flipped. He might have not even been conscience when he died.

[Guest Hal]

I read a similar story in which the driver made it away. I think he was a tech, but he always carried a fire extinguisher everytime he test drove a customers car. He flipped one once but had the fire extinguisher and broke the window to get out.

 

And what the hell is on the exhaust? Looks like the butterfly valve they have on bimmers to change backpressure throughout driving.

I was going to ask this too anyone have any ideas.

It's the give the car torques and make it possible to idle. Those high stung engines have to be "tricked" into idling.

 

Horrible way to go. Note to self, never flip a car.
