Well, it can certainly be dinged but it can’t dish dings out. Only a plus if you can convince everyone else to have these doors, too.

Came here to mention the Darrin, but you were on top of it. See Season 2 around episode 3 of the Man in the High Castle for some driving examples.
Oh, yes. And under certain conditions, it could dump passengers who are not strapped in.
The Z1 is similar, but whatever design they’re using doesn’t leave the same opening as the Lincoln. The remaining door sill is still pretty high, compared to a normal door. Same idea, different execution.
