L x W x H x Weight
1990 c900: 184.5 x 66.5 x 56.1 x 2770lbs
2010 9-3ss: 183.0 x 70.9 x 57.1 x 3400lbs
2010 Mini: 145.6 x 66.3 x 55.4 x 2570lbs
2011 9-5: 197.2 x 73.5 x 57.8 x 3800-4500lbs (!!)
so I think you're right... adding 4 inches to the girth of the 9-3 is going to add a chunk of weight... Mini is smaller, but also lighter (though the proportions are such that I can see how it would look wider and taller than a c900 as a sort of optical illusion)... I have a friend who's 6-4 and the Mini (supercharged of course) was about the only "fun" car at the time that fit him decently... old mini is very tiny in comparison!
The way things are going, I think we are most suited to the 9-3's size-wise. The outgoing 9-5 was about as large as I would want...
