Yes, the MR2 is mid engined. That contributes to its excellent weight distribution. But in the Supra, the MR2 engine is front mounted deep into the bonnet so much so part of the engine is actually under the dash! That is as close as possible to the Supra having a mid engine I suppose. Apparently it help s a lot in achieving good weight distribution. That also leaves a lot of space in front of the bonnet for cooling purposes. The Top Secret 200mph Supra for example exploits this empty area to put an industrial sized cooling fan! You should see the pic, the fans are huge and is mounted horizontally!
