As someone who exists outside of the norm, I am a fan of anything out of the ordinary – I love when risks are taken and I love when ground is broken. As the modern automotive landscape continues to homogenize into blobby crossovers with 2-liter engines and full-width light bars, I look toward the designs that dare to be different, the designs that spark curiosity and the ones that forge desirability. One way that a car can stand out is through the design of its doors. While most cars have traditional front-hinged doors that just do their job and do it well, there are many cars with daring door designs that ended up changing the world forever.

The spirit of innovation motivates growth and change, and it lends itself to cars that have a certain je ne sais quoi, the it-factor that lands on the inspirational and aspirational, walls of childhood bedrooms. This slideshow compiles my favorite mold-breaking door designs – some cooler than others, but all designs that dared to be different.
