Early Porsches, vw and Corvallis had light steering because they had skinny tires and now engine over the front tires

Modern cars have huge, grippy tires and a lot more weight over those tires

I bet that even a car like an Elise feels like it has heavy steering if it's got manual steering because of the grip of those front tires
