It says in the article that the Coquette is a mid/front engined car.
I doubt it could be mid engined car because the Corvette is front engined car.
Still they might of coppied the NSX's engine placement (transverse mid engine)... ????
So my question is: where is the coquette's engine mounted ?
It is mounted in the front, but it is near the windshield, so they call it "Front-Mid Engine".

Pronunciation

Although it's spelled "Coquette" if you say it out loud it's "Cock wet". Could be another attempt at sexual humor in the game.

Well I thought it was pronounced: Cocket (like some sort reference to 'Cock Rocket'). But I looked it up and its pronounced : koh-ket.

Frankly,I pronounce it Cuoy Ket.-User:HuangLee

The proper pronunciation is /kɒˈkɛt/, and it is a French slang for a woman who is a flirt, or a little more crudely, a prostitute. -Gman harmon 21:47, 25 November 2008 (UTC)

...Huh.-User:HuangLee

I added a Trivia section to explain this. Biggest GTA Fan EverTalk 01:52, 26 November 2008 (UTC)

I have always pronounced it just like it is spelled: Koh-kwet User:Ferrari Carr

Gman is right - its pronounced "cock-ette" (as in a little cock), but it from the french slang, and obviously a play on Corvette. See wp:coquette to back up the french thing - Gboyers talk 12:53, 8 June 2009 (UTC)

Drifting?

I was just wondering why the part of the article which said it was a good car to drift in was removed? Ess-Tee 08:29, 17 May 2009 (UTC)

It's still there, I just put it in with the handling comments mid-paragraph. Samadriel 13:03, 17 May 2009 (UTC)
Aiight sweet as man, good work with the cleanup. Ess-Tee 13:04, 17 May 2009 (UTC)

Fastest Car - it's NOT

Would JustinNYJ STOP editing this page and saying the Coquette's the fastest in the game. [1] - this has the game's files checked and this proves the Comet is faster.

Car name?

Wasn't this the name of the beginning car from one of the Midnight Club games?

In Midnight Club 2, the name of the first car you got was the Cocotte, not the Coquette. 88FanNASCAR 15:47, May 5, 2010 (UTC)

Engine placement

Hemisfear 18:30, August 17, 2010 (UTC)

It says in the article that the Coquette is a mid/front engined car.

I doubt it could be mid engined car because the Corvette is front engined car.

Still they might of coppied the NSX's engine placement (transverse mid engine)... ????

So my question is: where is the coquette's engine mounted ?

It is mounted in the front, but it is near the windshield, so they call it "Front-Mid Engine". ---Infernus Master
