Cars are getting chunkier.

I've noticed that sleek cars are dying. All the new cars nowadays are chunkier, bubblier, and fatter.

240s, rx-7s, mx-6s are gone.
The integra is being replaced by the bump called the rs-x.
The prelude is going.
The celica has turned into this blob.

The new corolla turned chunky, so did the new camry.
The civic got a fat face.
The eclipse is still has a big butt.
The taurus got chunkier.
The altima is now huge.
The maxima is getting a bigger.

SUVs are getting bigger. You have Suburbans, Escalades, those gigantic new Mercury things. Saturn has one now, etc.

The world is getting filled with big cars! We're gonna get run over!

the 350z is about 3100 lbs
the new rx8 is rated at about 2800
they arent that portly considering that the old 240's were about 2600-2800
also.. the old 3z was quite a bit heavier than the 350
and the rx7 is about the same as the rx8 if not heavier
also.. you should check out the dodge razor and other misc things. There are some good cars coming out..
like the evo7
or the wrx or even the sti
