The windows roll down a bit when you open the door, to relieve the pressure and create the trapped seal when the door is closed. There is also a pressure relief box in the trunk (as with most modern cars) to prevent the pressure spike you describe and aid in flow through ventilation.

Bottom line, your doors should not be "bouncing" off a cushion of air. If they re, there may be something wrong.

That said - I would love to have soft close doors and power boot lid. I am convinced the parts from the 5 or 7 could be installed in the 6 to add the power boot lid, but it would require some deft mechanical skills. I would try it but it's not worth the money to me since I lease.
