wow... that's a lot of big words!

Ask and ye shall receive

Here's the 3000GT VLS preview video. You can see how easy it is to get in and out, raise the door, etc.

Right Click and "Save target as"

This is the opening of a much longer DVD we will be showing at CES this year in vegas Jan 8-11 which includes an install overview, and owner gallery. We will begin selling the DVD to people soon. That price will be able to be used towards the price of the kit as well. It basically lets you know how the install goes.

Enjoy.

Well, the VLS looks far better than the previous video, and is rather impressive considering cost and ease of installation. I'd wait for a few personal reviews on the FD kit, but it is inviting.

yes, that video is very nice, and even though it is not motorized, it looks a lot cleaner and smoother than the AutoLoc version. I'd like to see how people look at you when you get out of your car normally and then get back into your car with the door going up! they'd be like " how did you do that?!?!" or even if 2 people were in your car and one got out normal and the other got out with the door lifted. any way you do it, it's going to attract attention and be a crowd pleaser to the public eye.

It isn't gullwing, because gullwing doors are like the delorean doors, they only go up, mclaren doors open diagonally up (and front) in relation to the vehicle.

Our RX7 VLS went into production last week. It should be available soon.... join the mailing list at:

http://www.importprecision.com/newsletter.htm

for the latest info on the release dates.

btw, our RX7 show car is on the cover of Hot Compact and Imports (HCI) magazine this month... we have a link to it on our site.

also, I made a exotic door primer.... so everyone is on the same page about what exactly gull/suicide, scissor, vertical, lambo... etc means

Sweet...didn't realize Jay changed the car that much. I thought he was going to get another FD and widebody it. Always an awesome job though. I've got to give him a call sometime. GREAT guy and very knowledgeable.

Any chance on a group buy for this. 15-1600 is a big wad of money.

Those look like they come out as far as a normal door.

I don't like the fact that you got to open the door like 10-15 inches and than go up, it doesn't look original for some reason, not my taste...

Hey deft spyder does your doors do that to like in the video of that 3000 GT ?
Your car drop jaws any freaking way b/c it looks so freaking hot,,, jeeeees.
