This popped up on my newsfeed on Facebook. Aside from the structural issue, I love the idea.  |

I think the car itself is an overly played out scene points grabbing shitbox.
However, the opening front and rear screens and side windows are properly cool.
But even cooler on the bug. I think probably as it's a flat screen

For the people who like this here's an other picture. Wouldn't worry about the seals round the screen keeping the water out, as there's no roof on it.  Those who aren't so keen on the car probably won't like the interior either with a built in beach.  (It's not mine by the way, but I do know the owner a little and he built it to get a reaction, so, mission accomplished I suppose.) |

As the front screen opens he could delete the wipers.

I think it works on the flat-screen Beetle. I'm not convinced by any of the Passat windows but it's tailgate screen is open too, and that might be something - perhaps it'd work better on an old flat-screen tailgate like this model..?  I have an '85 Polo coupe i could easily try it on as a mock-up, and a '93 Polo breadvan although that one's bonded. The mrs' old 207sw had an opening tailgate window, not the only modern to have one, so it could be the next big thing.. |

I'm a fan of the engeneering that went into it but not the forced patina, too many mods thrown at the car for me, having said that would i like an opening screen on my truck, hell yes  |

Nothing new. My mums daily driver until 1994, a 1940s MG YA had that as standard  It had a small hand crank on the dash I used to wind up when it got to hot inside during summer. |
