A few more Lotuses
Lotus Elise, early Lotus Esprit.
Then there is the Corona Dardo based on the X1/9.

All the Matra's are mid engined 4's:
Jet/DJet
M530
Bagheera
Murena
Also don't forget the DeTomaso Vallelunga, Ariel Atom, Opel Speester, Renault Sport Spider, Ginetta G2,3,4,15,21,23,24,26,28,30,31,32,33, Lancia 037, S4, ECV1 and ECV2.
The porsche cayman and BMW M1's are 6s.
Apologies - not all of the Ginetta's were mid engined. I don't know enough about the various models to say which but the most produced (the G15) certainly is.

I thought we were talking 4 cylinder here...
Were there any Pantera's that didn't come with the Ford 351 Cleveland?
I'll throw the Renault R5 Turbo into the list.

That was fun!
No, I did not think the Pantera was on the list.
Yes, I blew it on the modern Lotuses, should have thought of them myself.
Also had known of a short run Renault.
Gonna go look up the others.
Saw four Sunbeam Tigers in a parking lot today when I went to my Triumph breakfast.

I think the Smart is a 3 Cylinder?
yes - putting in the Lancia ECV's was cheeky as they weren't production cars - but the 037 and S4's could certainly be purchased (if you had enough Lira!) in Stradale versions. All the others were production too - albeit some are pretty rare!
I contemplated putting in the Stratos Zero, Bertone Runabout and Shake too - especially because those 3 are so close to OUR hearts! :grouphug:

List seems good
The Club X1/9 de France used to have a mid-engine gathering every year. They mostly welcomed thePorsche 914, Lotus Elise, Toyota MR2 and Matra Murena.
