Look at this. There you can see MANY pics of an E39 with suicide doors. it's the only one of it's kind. i don't think it looks bad on a sedan.

Mazda RX-7 also has suicide doors. I believe the correct terminology for the Lamborghini doors are scissors or vertical doors. The Lambo doors have always been confused with suicide doors.
