Deloreans have Gull-Wing Doors

Recently, a question popped up on Jeopardy that apparently the contestants couldn't get right. Say it with us "Gull-Wing Doors" A gull-wing door, also known as a falcon-wing door or an up-door, is an automotive industry term describing car doors that are hinged at the roof rather than the side, as pioneered by the 1952 Mercedes-Benz 300SL race car (W194) and its road-legal version (W198) introduced in 1954. We know this one!!
