Err coupe doors?

Anyone know if the coupe doors will be typically coupe-like heavy or will they lighten them with carbon fiber or aluminum?

Well, my main gripe is the length of the doors, followed by the bulk. I can imagine if I'm kinda busy with something... *smack* someone's got a dent in their car...

Who cares? Someone else has a dent.

But no the doors aren't big, like the scion tC. The ft86 is actually a tiny as car, wait and see.

I care a lot when I walk to my car and see dents from people opening their doors into my car.

I park miles away by myself and clear from all other cars in the back of any car-park, because I don't mind a longer walk to the shops/mall. Everytime I come out I find other cars parked right alongside me, what is it with that?!?!?!?

That pisses me off when I purposely park away from people and they have all these open spaces and they park right next to me.

As long as you part properly when going away from the crowd. If you part like a douche then expect bad things.

I once parked my 240 UBER close to this old snob in his cerrera, he wanted to fight me about it and I just laughed at him. Yea I was a punk kid at the time so f it!

I'm hopin for ae86 lightness and size of doors. Can anyone else agree with me in saying that crank windows would be the business??? Save money, weight and headaches 10 years down the line!

My boy has a SC300 and those doors are STUPID long!!!!! Not to mention HEAVY! Since he slammed it he can hardly get out if he's parked next to a shopping car return gate, let alone another car. If this new toyota has doors bigger than an s13 I'm not into it.

Unfortunately I doubt scion will release a crank window car, we'll see with the iQ though

And as much as I like the SC300, it wasn't supposed to be a sports car, it's a luxury cruiser where they dont care about weight, they cared about making the rear seat more accessible

Hell no to roll down windows. It is 2010. I didn't buy an s13 hatch just cuz it didn't have power windows and it was only $500.
