They had such odd driveline layout. Flat engine, on top of a gear cassette inside the oil sump, driving a differential on the back of the motor. Basically, the most complex, heavy, high CG way to layout the rear of that car. I felt it was always because they started with this big, long flat engine layout and, just to fit it back there, made a ton of compromises to make it work, layout-wise.

People hear flat engine and thing low-CG, but that was not the case here.
