Seen worse and heard some of the same comments when the C7 came out.

You're right. I mean, it seems like just yesterday that Offenhauser roadsters were winning Indianapolis. And I'm sure you remember Don Panoz's Batmobile front engined prototype race car that was a huge success, except for the fact that it never won.

I agree with a post above regarding the size of the grill. No cooling needed up front any more, so that profile will be much sharper, less gaping. Mid-engine proportions are usually much more exotic, but storage space will suffer greatly (form over function).

I can wash clothes at home. On a trip I want to have fun, not sit in the motel waiting for my clothes to dry.

Amazing how these threads on the Mid Engine Vette take on almost the same comments as those on the C6 Forum about the drawings of the C7 before it was unveiled ....

Washing clothes, pffft, just turn your underwear inside out and you're good to go.

That IS one way of doing it....

i had midengine Lotus that was REALLY small, but it had a fair amount of storage space split between two trunks, but is storage space all that important? Have there been a lot of complaints about storage space in the Ford GT?
