I heard that too. Maybe it's a fore-and-aft opposed engine? 
I don't think anybody cares if they're stretching a point. We've been dumbed
down by puffery in advertising toooo long. "Somewhere, west of Laramie...."

Is anyone else bothered by the ad Scion currently runs?  Directly quoted it
says, "The world's first and only horizontally opposed boxer engine."

Porsche, VW, Tucker and a number of motorcycles come to mind....

How do they get away with this?
