Being an American "invention", I would not certainly trust it!!
What is point of it? I don't see the practicality of it...

The idea is different enough, but i could see some drunk hicks thinking it'd be hillaruious to put the door up when their mates are tryin to get out the car...

It would appear to me to be extremely dangerous if anything malfunctioned or the buttons were pushed by accident o_o

But hey, we'll just call it "Natural Selection" for those who intend to buy crap like this =)

if you have an accident and your cars on fire good luck getting out,

power windows are already hard enough as they don't open if the car is dead imagine that jammed and your car is burning
