I think the only car I've driven that actually feels like a go-kart (and not the rental place kind where none of the tires point the same direction) is an '85 civic, a tin can without power steering, curb weight was under 1,900 lbs.

I had a 95 civic with no PS , crank windows, as basic as it gets.. That was lighter than this car.. But not near as tight or crisp..
Weight is relative.. I hadn't driven the civic in a long time.. And my last few cars have been around 3200lbs .. So this one is plenty lightweight by most real world standards..
Can't fit in and don't care for miatas..
