"In a reversal of strategy, Jaguar is said to be working on a mid-engine placement for the 2005 F-Type, a 2-seat concept shown at last year’s Detroit auto show in front-engine/rear-drive guise. It is believed that it will be much less costly for Coventry to adapt the X-Type’s transverse-mounted V-6 to a new mid-engine platform than to develop or alter an existing rear-drive platform for the new Boxster-battler." ~Road & Track
