I'd definitely go through the window, it's really easy with my car, and it would save a lot of weight!

Back when crysler owned Lamborghini they made a concept car that had 4 doors the front pair opened classic scissor style and the rear doors opened the other way. It was also B-pillar-less so really easy to get in.

do you happen to know the name of that concept?

They did the Marzal in 1968 which had gullwing doors but still was a 4-seater.

The 1987 Lamborgini concept car named Portofino.

Yep. Even through Lamborghini's experiments, it was obvious the heavily-Chrysler influenced concept was another one that wouldn't make it.

I believe Lamborghini is the only company to have a 4-seater car with 2 large gullwing doors.
