I like the looks, and can really see the styling clues of the original gull-wing in the SLS. A little Dodge Viper from the side but I won't hold that against it.

I think I will wait till I see it in the flesh but on first impression I don't like it. The more time I spend with the SLR the more I think it fits its' supercar brief. One issue on both though with these doors - if you end up on your roof, how do you get out?

As long as you only open one of the doors you should be able to flip it back onto it's wheels.
BTW what do you mean by
The more time I spend with the SLR
