Why do our doors not close like F series

Hey gurus, what is it that I can do to get that rubbery contact feel and not the weird sloppy door slam on our cars, I've also seen other e70 s they all close the Same way ... Would swapping the river gasket help to some after market thicker one ? I'm not putting new doors lol

It probably won't make a difference, but as part of annual maintenance, you should shoot some silicone spray on a rag and wipe all rubber door seals, including the rear hatch. It'll make them more pliable and not stick/freeze during the winter.
