That's older than Al Gore.

And the BMW Z1 would disagree with the term 'invention.'

I thought of the Z1, with the higher sill on entry with the doors down.

I'm not sure if it's a repost, but I've seen this before, either here or on autoblog. I think it's actually kinda cool.

I don't know if you could actually open the normal door either if you fell in the water.

Older than dust, but you would not want to get in a side-impact wreck with that door.
