Comment on Lexus IS Design Contest by moonbeam13

The only thing I would add would be a protective strip on the side to shield the car against shopping carts and people like me who inevitably chip the paint of cars in adjoining spaces because the spaces are too small to clear the doors when they open.  I would not buy any car without such a strip, and because the function of the strip is so well known, I consider modern car companies negligent for not including them.  If some day I ding your paint because you don't have a strip and you parked too close to the edge of the space, IT'S YOUR FAULT!  Sue your car company for product defect, not me.
