But a well-built car doesn't necessarily mean vault-like doors. Take Lexus, for example. They are engineered immaculately but I just don't like the feel of their doors closing, it's like closing a very flimsy plastic door.

I guess MB wanted to recreate as much as it has lost before, and I say, good work indeed.
