i like the fabric idea, but over time it could become quite expensive, for instance convertible tops are pretty much water proof but they have to be replaced every few years, they stretch out and even though you dont see it they can cause quite a bit of drag, also it would be verry loud inside the vehicle.

i would still sport a cloth car though, it would be verry unique, and i could change the color on whim - how neat

the rotary door is neat but what happens if it gets stuck?
