I don't get the attraction of gullwings on a 4 door sedan. Just because you can do it doesn't mean you should. It's a great exercise in design and execution, but not for me.

Damn, it looks nice.. I started a thread awhile ago about this.. I am still going to do some modifications to the doors, either this or the suicide doors.
Here is the pic of a Maxima ...
Also, what kind of grill is that on the GS?

I'd do the gullwing if I had the $$$.
How about a gullwing/suicide combo? Has anyone seen this?

To me, this is an exercise in spending money to lighten the wallet. While it may be interesting it evokes little response other than "geeze...they spent $$$ for that." Of course, it is your car and yours to do with as you see fit...if doing this makes you happy, it is a project to pursue.
