Aw, fack....indeed it does.
Chevrolet Corvair, Ferrari 308/328, Ferrari Dino, Lancia Stratos, etc.
I'm dropping out to create a company that starts with motorcycles, then cars, and forty years later signs a legendary Brazilian driver who has a public and expensive feud with his French teammate.

fiat 126p
and the Zaporoshets of course....and the Subaru 360. My favourite mid engine car: THe Isetta 300....

Does front midship count?
thats what we are trying to figure out
it was actually me who killed vasilli zaitsev, heinz thorwald, carlos hatchcock, and simo hayha
you could turn a civic into a mr. ive seen some where they put the engine on top of the car and drive backwards
You don't mention budget so let's assume it's...
Limited mid-engined choices in the States, look for a clean 2nd gen. MR2. Exceptional in nearly every way, best bang for buck.
Alternate would be '73-'76 914 2.0, best years and the 2.0 is far better than the 1.7 or 1.8.
Live near the Canadian border? Check autotraders and eBay for a Honda Beat. They are very cool little cars.
There are lots of rear-engined choices. If you want something unusual but dependable, look for a VW SP2 and massage the engine.
They're underpowered but have great lines. One sold recently on eVilbay for under $4000. (pics copped from Renato Bellote's excellent site-thnx!) Or, consider a Miata or CRX... lots to choose from, priced right. Take your time, buy the right car for you.
Never own more cars than you can keep charged batteries in...
Good call. Midengine for cheap it's hard to beat an MR2. Friend of mine has one and I remember being extremely surprised at the time that a toyota could be that much fun. But if you want it for an everyday car it's hard to find midengine with much space behind the front seats. Did you want more than two?
