Two trains of thought on that.
You have to be a better driver in the small car, people will try to occupy your space, either from inattention, or a mostly correct assumption that you will move out of the way.
While you are more nimble, you have to use it. It will keep you more alert and active.
In the big car, people will move for your mistakes.
It is a LOT more stress in a stock 944 without a loud exhaust, than it is in my big fill the lane up 2+2 GT.
Now that said a nearly open exhaust on the 944 has slowed the amount of lane changing over run.
