Lambo doors are pretty terrible. I have seen them on a C5 Corvette and regardless of if you like the look they are a nightmare in terms of getting proper alignment. Also it destroys the resale value of the car which most folks don't take into account.

But those doors don't belong on a Camaro..imo..and another thing they are not called Lambo doors..lol

The official term is called scissor doors they were first made for the Alfa Romeo Carabo (sp) a concept car designed by Marcello Gandini. The early reasons for this design were twofold. One reason was for styling, the other was make the driver's life easier when reversing. Since the car had very poor rear visibility, instead of using the rear view mirror, the driver could open the door and actually drive the car while leaning out. Gandini used the same doors in the Lamborghini Countach whose wide chassis mandated this unusual door configuration. The design was carried forward to the Countach's successor, the Lamborghini Diablo. The only current Lamborghinis in production which use this design are the Lamborghini Murcielago and Lamborghini Reventon Lamborghini has now become synonymous with scissor doors.

It's just a joke, I'm sure most of the people here know that the Murcielago and other Lambos have 'scissor doors'
