My biggest concern would be side impacts.

What's wrong with simple sliding doors, a la Mazda M5?

But I'm probably not the only here who is bored silly by 
current crop of cars. Hybrids, how novel. We've now
come full circle, to the Lohner-Porsche from 1899.
Which even had the dernier cri, the sans-transmission
in-hub motors! And fuel cells, we can't get the damn
things right since 1839! Wow, does that suck, or what?
