I guess it all depends on what you're used to and how you drive too. Most cars are pretty heavy these days, given the added safety they need to incorporate, heavy OPF filters, then you add the tech weight, bigger wheels and tires and you end up with some hefty curb weights.
Hard to make a blanket statement about what is heavy vs what is not, but to me, a light car by current day standards would need to be below 3300 lbs.
