The Honda Element's Clam Shell Doors

Clam Shell doors are a form of doors similar to the suicide door, with one main difference. The front door must be opened before you can open the rear door, similar to a clam shell, hence the name. With suicide doors, either the front or rear can be opened without the other door needing to be open. Also, if you close the front door, then the rear, it may break the doors.
