its too rice... serves no pratical purpose. adds wieght to an already heavy car. and they still dont work like real lambo doors... you have to push them out a lil bit like a normal door then they come up.. CHEESY. too poserish for my taste and i always wonder what would happen in a short parking garage.... ferrari doors huh? i thought all ferraris were regular or gullwing...

Are you speaking heavy as the stock weight of around 2800 or this riced version... because i certaintly don't think the stock weight is heavy at all.

It's all about your personal style. If you like them then get them. I can't say I like them. The videos I've seen and the ones I've seen in person require that the driver practically roll out of the car. It's kind of rediculous. The doors just don't give you enough clearance to stand up straight since they were not designed to funtion that way.

The RX-8 weighs just 200lbs more, has a back seat and rear doors - The FC should have been lighter: a 13b in a 2200lb car (like a crx weight) would show rotary goodness.
I kind of like the look and our doors are long so it's somewhat useful.
Track wise it adds weight which means I don't like it.
It's also got the, "I wish I had a lambo" look to it which would mean you're not happy with your FC.

Lambo doors do look kinda ricey, just not my style. But if someone does put them on their car, it better have 400hp or it would be like a widebody kit on a stock FC with huge rims it doesn't even need.

My .02: If your going for some type of cliche show car, then go with the kit. If you want to go fast, focus your time/money else where.
