Not to our knowledge, as this requires a different tie-in for the calculations. Rear engine cars will be added to the game though, it is not too complicated for us to do (i.e. it doesn't take that much time), but so far they have been pretty low on the priority list.

Someone plz do not-Porsche 911 body for that xD
But seriously, Rear-engined cars would be pretty good idea.

There really have not been that many.

The 911 and it's cousins (including the VW Beetle) and a few pre-war Tatras. That's about it.

Rear engine layout doesn't really work that well for the most part....nasty handling.

There were dozens of small European cars with rear engine layout, many of which were hugely popular and have an important place in automotive history.

There was also the Chevy Corvair and a few others. Sure, rear engine design was never as popular as front engine, and never will be, but it'll definitely be a cool addition to the game.
