Okay but, what about mid-engined cars?

Is the engine detachable so if you want to go to a restaurant, you can bring it in with you and reduce the risk of some conniving bandits trying to steal it?

As a heavy diesel mechanic I hate that you're almost on the right track and the argument's for weight distribution are off.
You only failed this Shark Tank because you didn't also tell them about your new insurance company that specifically insures against these new vehicles flipping on their sides.

How many of these engines on top of cars have you sold so far?

Clearly you would have outshone the other contestants too much. It's for the best. Use the rejection to power you on, like gasoline!

I'm a technician, and I want to invest! What you said about mirrors and shit resonated on a deep level

Oh dear. I always had this fantasy that Trent is a lot funnier than Joel, which is why he plays the straight man to Joel's barely queer man. But nope. That was the best role for him.

I wasn't with you until the "you can just look up into the engine and just see it doing while you're driving and go 'woah. neat.'"
Take all of my money now please.

Well I don’t know about you guys but I’m sold. Is there any way we could make the engine even thinner and we could build the whole body out of…that’s right, the engine….ey?
