The problem is everybody thinks ALL mid-engine cars will ultimately catch on fire and that front-engined is "safer" - as if NO front-engined car has ever caught fire!!

I guess they are ignorant of the fact that ANY engine leaking gas, oil or other fluids onto exhaust parts or electrical shorts will do just that!

You don't see Japanese vehicles catching on fire as much as the other makes. Not that it doesn't happen but rare. Watched a iron duke fiero burn to the ground in 1990. Blackest smoke you've ever seen. Must be the panels.

Nah, they just accelerate by themselves and the airbags don't work properly.

Fire recalls - not just the Fiero...
Remember the slogan “have you driven a Ford lately?”
