drive an 850kg car, with a "decent" SR or FJ, say high 200rwkws, its a shorter wheelbase, look front on at the extra width of a skyline from the roof to the ground- the doors are much thicker than on old cars.
In old, light cars, you have a lot more feel through the steering wheel, pedals etc, and you dont have a foot between your shoulder and the outside world, you have an inch, so it seems less disconnected, then factor in weight, wheelbase, power etc, becomes a lot of fun
