Ah ok that would make sense that he's a former Spyder owner as he seems pretty knowledgable about them. And yeah we've had the whole "does the boxer engine actually make a difference" discussion on this board before. You've got to think at some level it does lower CG. Unfortunately also necessitates the macpherson strut layout up front and probably made it too expensive to incorporate variable lift cams.
