Yes they are RWD, but they use a mid engine set up, which is  essentially
the same as a FWD set up just moved to the back of the car.  The MR2's use a
east-west engine, not a north south set up.

Very few realistically priced cars use a North south mid engine and RWD,
really only things like Ferrari's and the like do this and normally with
V6's and V8's.

Hope this clears it up
