This is a bit embarrasing for me, but is there a graceful way to exit a Carrera coupe without looking like the old coot that I am? I'm 63, 6' 1" tall, reasonably fit, but my knees are shot! And because of my vanity, I refuse to swing both legs out simultaneously in the attempt to achieve a standing position. The main problem is that my knees don't quite bend like they used to. Oh, and keep this among yourselves. . .

Squire a really young, gorgeous honey, and let her get out first, very... slowly :>)

It seems to me that the only practical solution is a hydraulic shock system that would raise the car chassis 2 or 3 feet higher when you open the door. I'm sure you could tie it in to the sensor that raises and lower the windows.

I think I saw that on E Bay :D

A Gurney Porsche? (and I don't mean Dan)

I'm getting the hang of it. Like heel-and-toeing, it just takes practice. Haven't bent like that in a long time.
