I'd love to see how people expect this car to miraculously fit an AWD system. Have they even LOOKED at the car and where everything is placed?
Here, a visual aid:
The front axles would have to share the same space as the #3 and #4 cylinders. The only way to make an AWD system fit would require raising the engine and transmission. That would mean raising the hood and transmission tunnel.
So let's say they do that... Now the seating position has to be higher in order to see over the hood and have the shifter/center console in a comfortable position. Now we need a taller roof line. Gotta raise the trunk line now to keep the car from looking silly. And with making the whole car taller, we need to make it longer or again, it won't be visually appealing and sales will be lost.
OMG, we just made a WRX.
So how is this magical AWD 86 supposed to be built?
