I think I will pass unless they address issues raised on one of Yahoos links about the unsafest cars ever built.

That article mentioned that if the car was hit at an angle or otherwise damaged the doors would frequently cock and there was absolutely no way to open them. Apparently they also swing out a considerable distance more than regular doors and if parking is tight or someone blocks the car there is no way to open them enough to even squeeze in or out.

I guess they could always go to the Tesla contractor that built the folding doors for the new Tesla model. According to news there is probably tooling and maybe finished doors that could soon be available. The DeLorean people would just have to issue raincoats with each car to catch the hydraulic fluid leaking out of the folding mechanism.
