Car is just happy to see you, and wants to let you know that you have a SHOCKING personality,,. LOl!!! You have some electrical running through the door that may just be touching frame. you may have to take the inside panel off and check for loose/frayed wiring touching frame. Wiring would be for power windows, speakers, door locks as well as the courtesy light in the door. I would start to look there first. Easy enough to check.

www.lexls.com will also help you to navigate your way around this car as well.

go to an auto parts store and buy a static strap. unbolt one bolt from one of the tie downs behind your rear bumper. Install by putting the bolt back while inserted in the static strap.

It's called static electricity. Ground yourself before touching the car.
