Puff of Smoke Car Door

 For Grand Entrances.

Ever wanted to make a really spectacular entrance when you're doing nothing more extravagant than popping down the shops? Well, with a 'Puff of Smoke' car door, now you can.

As you are getting out of your car, simply press the discrete switch hidden in the handle of your (slightly thicker) car door. This will open a series of small pressurised liquid nitrogen containers kept within the door. This creates a find cloud of mist from which you emerge, looking both suave and mysterious.

       and if the door was obscured because the smoke was so thick, could this be then called: "Puff, the magic door-gone" ? +

       Baked. The doors of every alien spacecraft ever shown in a movie. [+]

       Excellent - it should play a little fanfare and some applause too.

       Looks like many of you would be interested in the deluxe version, which would apparently interface with your stereo.   

       Nice link [Spoon], very cool idea.

       I think I saw this installed on A Delorian once... No, maybe that was a movie...

       Thank you, [Lt Frank] and [ht]. As you can see it didn't fare that well when it was presented. Ah well, perhaps it was just waiting to ride the tails of a better idea.

       It aught to include a very sharp back light and a fan in the frame as well to give your hair or trench coat that romantic windblown look. A bit of dramatic music, like from the start of a boxing match would be a nice final touch.

       Read that as "degroof-mobiles" for a moment, but same difference, I guess.

       I was rather thinking of that not unpleasant variety of Metal in which the lead vocalist sings in small capitals.

       Nice, but I picture something like a scene from a Cheech and Chong movie. Any cops in the area might make wrong assumptions about what that smoke is. [+]

       How did I miss this idea?
