That windshield glass should be easy to find a replacement for when it chips....

I'll just go down to the "Wrap-around windshields R' Us" store.

Nice. Very Nice. I like this design.

I have some questions. How do the doors open? I cannot tell from the rendering. Are you thinking of swing out, gullwing, or canopy like the Sterling (Nova in Europe)? 

What is the intent of the wing. Since wings are efficient in the length, there is very little value to the design. Is this suppose to only be a spoiler or only there for aesthetics?

HOLLY COW! Look at that blind spot!  You better have a 180 video camera out the back!  Cool design!

What blind spot?

In that car who cares where you've been. And if someone is chasing you, could they really catch you?

Can someone explain to me how the door opens?

It can't pivot upwards like a lambo door due to the wrap-around glass.

I suppose it could swing out like a conventional door, but then wouldn't you hit your head on the protuding glass as you tried to sit down?

Maybe it's a drone and you just drive it from comfort of your living room?
