I'd say that was front engined rather than mid.

nar, it does look like its main bulk has been pulled back behind the front wheels.... especially when you note the rad is still in its original position and the head is tucked well under the scuttle.

As said by Shawdreamer really, the engine has been pushed back right to the drivers feet.

Just done some research is it neither known as mid or front. It's known as FMR, Viper and newer corvettes use the same, + others. Edited March 29, 2011 by bluliz

Front Mid + Rear wheel drive.

MR as you know is the normal term, Mid means anything the engine between the axles. Prefix is set as to which axle the engine is closest to.

So it is Mid engined but front or rear needs to be specified, fair enough, makes sense.
