Car makers that already sell a decent number of sports cars have the basic know how to build a great mid-engine car. Like for instance Chevy, they could have been selling a Boxster/Cayman mid engine car ages ago.
Not Chevy but GM anyway, it was called a Fiero, and considering it was off the shelf doggy components that car could rail a corner pretty well.

For all the four cylinder hate going on, keep in mind this first version will be the slowest one they put out. You can keep your chrono, PDK and air conditioned seats. Give me an RS version with none of that and "bits of rag to open the doors" and I'm down.

Jeremy Clarkson probably hates the Boxster because it can be thrown through corners and outrun cars with far more horsepower without even being a skilled driver. I find it telling that the personal cars of both of the other two hosts on the show are a Boxster S.
