And the Lord said unto Sven, "Though shalt not put thine 2-stroke V8 outboard into the hallowed Volvo, for it would be an abomination in the eyes of the Lord." But Sven disobeyed our Lord God and installed it anyway. The Lord was displeased but Sven had faith in his creation. Upon the Amazon's first start, the sounds…
You're completely right that giving equal power to both front tires would increase traction. The problem is the cheap way to do this is a "locked" differential, which locks both wheels into spinning at the same speed. This is fine in straight lines, or when there isn't much traction (off-roading, or snow!) but every…

Wouldn't mind seeing Demuro in one.

My guess is that there are limitations to how much the front wheel can steer because of all the hydraulic witchcraft going on. To avoid having a monster turn radius the designers were forced to make the rear pivot as well. Seeing as everything else is hydraulic, doing so would have been pretty damned easy.
Isn't that the niche the FR-S filled?
Now playing

And that startup sound. Hngggggggggg....
