New cars are big. Sports cars are small. Even small cars seem big next to smaller cars.
Tonight my wife and I met at a brewery halfway between our works after work. The Boxster seems small next to anything else, except the NSX.

An NC Miata looks larger than the Titanic in photos.
My Cappuccino between an 80's Accord and Audi TT:
I can't find it now. But I had a picture of my NA next to my '13 Mustang GT at my old house. Pretty funny.
Even now, our '18 Mazda 3 sedan compared to the '22 BRZ.........most (not us) wouldn't consider it a large vehicle, but sitting next to the lowered BRZ it looks enormous. Any my fat a$$ needs to lose some weight and start doing Yoga again to make it easier to get in and out of the BRZ!
You might think a Toyobaru is a small car, until....
Want to make a McLaren look huge? Park an FD next to it.
I was watching some Goodwood videos. The classing is weird. They were running big American cars against Minis, and it looked like you could fit the Mini in the trunk of some of the American models.

Funny you should say that...
But then...
I always thought my Skyline looked tiny in this one.
I own a bugeye sprite. I was at a car show and several people were convinced it was a vintage golf cart or something because no way was something that small an actual road going car. Had to show them the license plate to convince them.
My C5 feels huge until it's parked next to SWMBO's s197

FDs made FCs look big!
Park an FD next to an SA, though...
The picture is a few years old, my 2004 Mazdaspeed MX-5 (highly modified) nose to nose with a newer Mini Cooper (Countryman?). My mother was driving a 2004 Mini Cooper S at the time so I had to park there to take a picture.

Arent they the same size? Like within an inch in all dimenisons.
I feel like I should be participating in this thread...
Here's one of my favorite shots of my Cappuccino that puts the size in perspective.
33 year old truck vs 10 year old Titan, just need a new 2500 truck to compare how ridiculously large trucks are now
Showing the smaller car further away adds another dimension to the perspective.
If you know what size a 914 is, check it out next to a 917:
The first time I ever saw a 917K in person and got to sit in it I was blown away how small it is. It just has such a presence in photos and video.
I love my land whales.
Since I am lusting/bidding over a 2017 Ghost right now I have to keep looking at comparison photos of that. It fits in the garage with 8 inches to spare but its tight. M3 for scale to a Phantom.
Remember when a GMT-800 was a full-size truck?

Well, that's a half ton vs 1 ton, and kinda looks like it's been lowered a bit?
But yes, the current Super Duties are huge. They do tow better than a GMT800 2500HD though!
