It's huge! What happened to the concept of small and light? If it would have had an M6 badge on it I wouldn't have looked twice. (M6s are very large lux/performance coupes.)
My car "paradigm" comes from the 1980s, when cars were -- by and large -- much smaller than today.
Lighter = less engine needed = better handling and MPG.
Now it seems manufacturers are muscling and bulling their way to performance.
(I know, I know, safety requirements and features drive up weight.)
