I have taken pictures of a car door from a Crown Victoria Police Interceptor. This door is very lightweight and can easily be picked up. The outer layer of the door is 1 piece of sheetmetal that is as thick as a dime. There is a reinforcement on the inside to mount the trim panel, but this is also a thin sheet of metal. Inside the door itself goes the window and the regulator/motor that makes it go up/down.
So when you get behind a car door, all you have is 1 or 2 sheets of thin metal, a glass window, a vinyl trim piece and some other random bits of steel.
You can easily shoot through this door even with smaller calibers.
