And with the seats positioned closer to the front wheels, the driver and passenger are located at the cars center of gravity.The result is instant response, a feeling that the car is rotating around you. With the extra traction on the rear wheels and nothing but the road ahead, you can dive quickly into a corner under braking and accelerate out smoothly.
