Were you aware that the AMC pacer was originally intended to be sold with a front wheel drive with a rotary engine? I did not but was watching "full throttle" and this was pointed out that AMC bought plans for a rotary set up but were unable to make it run properly so scrapped the design for a six cylinder instead.

Now thats interesting, someone should buy one and right the wrongs that were made in the past.
