YOU try being rear ended by a race car hauling ass and see if your door doesn't fly open! I may HATE the Cruze but be fair guys.

aren't the race cars made out of lightweight materials though that make them more fragile to shatter on impact?

And they're designed to come apart in a crash. The more mass a car can shed on impact, the less momentum it carries after. Although that applies more to purpose built race cars than production based cars like the bimmer.
