Because the C of G of a RR is high and right over the front wheel?

Even if it is the best technical solution out there, it makes the car look so damn ugly that I personally wouldn't go for the concept!

Interesting point to note on that though is that they'vealso pushed the wheelbase up quite a way which will drastically affect handlingin itself
