RR != MR

the Karmann Ghia, however, is MR. i can't think of anything else right now.

I was thinking about that but NESW20 is right its more as a Rear engine Rear wheel drive like a 911. I was thinking outside the US any FR or MR.

VW have been RR or FF (once a while 4wd), but don't think they made FR layout

I know the difference, close enough.

Why does the OP ask though?

They have a concept called the BlueSport Roadster which is a MR layout with a diesel engine.

They also have another concept that is a MR layout but is more of a compact car. It's called the "up!"

Both are expected to be produced soon.
