Zero. Because they’d look like pretentious POS’s?

They'd def be more desirable. Can't tell you how many people asked if they doors go up, and were disappointed that they didn't.

Not sure how people will like it but that will be a pricey option and not standard, I guess for those who that want the gullwing, having an option is always a good thing.

The chassis and suspension are very similar to the SLS. The door panels on the inside are basically identical.

While the gullwing looks cool, it doesn’t make any sense on the SLS. On the original, there was a mechanical need for the gullwing; on the SLS, they were put on for show.

Not me. The SLS is definitely cool; but the fact that the doors are just for show, unlike the original, was a turn off.
