When I first started out, a 1966 Mercury Comet Caliente 2 door hardtop: 203". 65 Dodge Monaco two door hardtop 213.3. Neither was as large as the 1966 Mercury Montclair I learned to drive on: 220.4.
Since 1980 the cars have ranged from 176-180" [84 Citation II, 86 Olds Calais, 95 Saturn SL1, 99 Cavalier 2 door], 184.5 [ 05 Saturn ION 4 door] and the largest 186.2 [1963 Plymouth Valiant 2 door hardtop].
I think the sweet spot for me is the 176-180" range and 68" wide.
The Saturn ION and Valiant seem needlessly large, but I love em anyway.
As an aside, a Ford Excursion parked near me while I was filling water jugs at a dispenser. Things have become so absurd and super-sized in the '20s, that bloody Excursion looked almost... svelte and restrained.....
You should see the Calais parked next to a 72 Toronado or a modern pick up truck. Insane visuals.
