all it took for the swiss to make something good was to put a ford running gear in it-powered by ford baby! Hey maybe the Japanese should put a ford motor in something and it would be tight too,lol!

it Was the fastest production car till the veyron came out this year. also those doors are incredibly light. I contacted them a couple years ago when they just had the concept of it and i wanted to know how they did the doors like that and what it may take to do it to my car. The first thing the reccoemended was get doors made completely our of carbon fiber or something lighter. They said that the doors on that car weigh something like 4-5 pounds

Sweden and Switzerland are some distance apart, the Swiss are not in the EU and don't have a car industry, in fact they have very restrictive rules, to try and keep the air clean.

I think you are referring to the Swedes, not the Swiss.

The Swiss make nice watches, the Swedes make nice cars.

Wow, that is light for a door, but I was thinking about total weight, including all the parts to actually make those doors work, such as motors, gears assemblies(or however they work) vs plain side opening carbon fiber doors....
