Discussion : Pros and Cons of a framed door vs. a non-framed door?
I was just thinking about this a few hours ago, about the general population of "sports" car owner's preference on a framed door or non-framed door on their vehicle. Even if you vehicle has one or the other, would you rather have the other option, or something different, and state why??

I like having non-framed doors. Only thing that sucks is when you get into a car with a framed door you take a chance of losing an eye.
I like it because I can get in and out of the car easier when I have the windows down.

Sometimes I think after years of having a non framed door that was put together with cheap materials (ie Mustang), that the door starts to fall apart.

god forbid you lock your keys in a car w/o framed doors. using a slim jim on those things is a pain in the ass.

Wind noise tends to be worse as the car ages on frameless windows. There isn't as much material holding the glass and weather stripping in place.
