Not really, cars targeted towards the car enthusists (but unfortunately most often than not they are the higher end models) are getting their weight in check. The current, V8 in the M3 is a good example. It is unfortunate that some manufacturers such as AMG are more obssesed with raw power that getting fit. But as long as there are light weight options for me, I'm fine with that. The rest of the non-car-enthusists can indulge in their heavy SUV all they want.
