I'll stick with my original statement...If it's Front Wheel Drive, instead of Mid-Engine or All Wheel Drive...

Why F'ing bother!

I agree. It would hope they learn from the 90s Lotus Elan. It was FWD and they couldn't give them away. Things have changed but do know they couldn't sell me one if it's FWD. If it's Mid engined I would buy one in a heartbeat. It would be great replacement for the Toyota MR2 spyder. That car would probably still be in production if it hadn't been so ugly. A mid engined cute Mini would sell great.
