I believe the engine/transaxle in the Citation is identical to the Fiero. After the Fiero came out, I figured that just about any FWD angine/trans/ subframe/suspension could be used to make a mid-engine car. How about a Ford GT40 or Lambo Miura replicar with a hopped up VW TDI in it? The most interesting conversion I ever saw on the market was called SHOgun, if I recall correctly. They took the 3.0L 220hp Yamaha V6 out of a Taurus SHO and stuck it in the back seat of a Festiva. Looked remarkably like a Renault 5 Turbo, which was basically a 185hp mid engine LeCar.
