Well, it can, it just takes ever-increasing amounts of development and money to do so, more-so than something like the Cayman. This is why the price keeps going so stratospheric.
Not really. They throw a ton of development and tech and money at it to overcome some inherent flaws vs the mid engine layout. Yes it?s better with all the tech and computerized intervention but you cannot change the laws of physics. Mid engine is inherently a better choice than rear. You can do all kinds of shit to mask that disadvantage but the underlying issue is still there.
