FWD/RWD/Mid-engine (NAC)



Keith said (concerning F1 cars):

"They are also mid engined, which in a road car makes the back seats a
tad small. Ferrari are the only people I can think of who have made a mid
engined car with rear seats."

Lamborghini's Urraco, intended Porsche competitor and predecessor to the
Bravo, also had rear seats, though as much of a joke as Porsche's.
Still, when "Car" sent a writer and photographer to check it out, the
factory insisted on sending one of their drivers out with them, so of
course the shooter got to test the back seat. It was awfully cozy, but
he actually got to take some pictures from back there.

Further compounding the lack of Alfa content: that's the only Lambo I've
ever lusted for. There's one around here someplace - it showed up at Car
Night a while back, and if the guy ever offers to give me a ride, even
in the back seat, I'm *there*...
