My wife and I want to vacation there for 5 days in late May. We are both physically disabled. We are leaning toward The New York Palace, but it is a bit pricey. We live near Sacramento, CA, and are planning to fly there via JetBlue.
I currently drive a 2-door 1999 Chevrolet Monte Carlo. I enter through the passenger side door and transfer to the drivers seat. I then fold my wheelchair and slide it in the back seat. I am paralyzed from the chest down and have full mobility of my arms, however I do not want to have to enter the drivers side door and take the chair apart. The method I do now is what I would like to do on a future vehicle. I do not want a van or minivan. I would love to buy a nice new car. If you know of any 2-door coupes that meet the requirements of my situation, then please let me know about them.
