What makes a car feel fast is a lot of things. For one, it's the feeling of being at the limit, and what kind of sensation that imparts. It has a lot to do with how raw the car feels when pushed. How low it is. How much of the road you feel through the steering wheel. How isolated the cabin is from the road.
This is the same point I'm trying to make. Glad to see some others get it here as well.
