I do believe car reviewers help shape the sports car industry. Maybe this is my own opinion and it is wrong, but I do feel that cars such as the 911 were made famous in large part due to the rave reviews they get. So if reviewers are not calling out modern sports cars for being heavy and just skipping over this point, than sports cars will just continue to get heavier and heavier.

I’ve definitely heard some of the die hard Porsche cult complain about how large an heavy the cars are becoming. But I think, specifically towards Porsches, there is a sort of bias towards them in auto journalism where they can’t do ANYTHING wrong haha.
Don’t get me wrong they make incredible, incredible cars and I’d love to own one.
