    Surely yes! I never had a problem with parking close to something before.
    You typically need 11 inches for side clearance next to something to be able to open the gullwings. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gull-wing_door


    In the Bricklin they are the upgraded air operated system for the doors (originally came with hydraulics which were poor due to leaks) so I just touch a button (either getting in or out) and the door flies up.

    it'd help to know a lil about cars honestly. tune up and oil change will keep your car running normal, barring any other freak wear and tear.

    dude some cars are just pieces of crap that are mechanic bills waiting to happen. that is all. poorly designed, crappily put together pieces of automotive dog crap that are just aching to cost you money.
