What's the big deal about having a transverse engine layout? Okay so it makes for a longer front overhang and a shorter firewall-to-axle distance, but aside from that who cares? Audi (and the VW Passat) has longitudinally mounted engines and yet they have the same "problem."
The Mitsubishi EVO has a transversely mounted engine and nobody seems to care about that.
