Cars getting bigger? No
1st gen VW Rabbit
49-110 hp
1750-2145 lb curb weight
2009 Rabbit
170 hp
2975-3138 lb curb weight
Look at almost any VW and you'll see around a 1000 lb gain in mass over the last 20-25 years. People want more space, and governement mandates higher safety standards and tighter emissions. It all takes more stuff!
I myself would love a <2000 lb, 80-100 hp fun box.
