I think it has a lot to do with the horsepower of modern engines. My '87 16V Scirocco was something of a sports car for its day with a whopping 124 hp. Got great gas mileage too! And my '80 Rabbit put out around 90 hp. Anyway, there's hardly a car on the market today that puts out less than 124 hp because the market asked for it. How else can you explain the need for a Hemi engine in 2005-2006? In Europe, Saab has a range of much lower horsepower engines available because the market demands it while in the US their smallest engine puts out 210 bhp.
