Rear Caliper Position - Any Advantages?

[JasonElvisHeard]

realistically I would challenge any driver who can state that they can "feel" the difference behind the wheel as to where the caliper is mounted.

Packaging and looks are the #1 /#2 factors in caliper location. Performance will be good regardless of mouting in front or rear.

FYI, the C5/6 platforms only mount calipers like so because GM is cheap... yeah I said it.... they are flat-out cheap... they did this so that they don't have to make different uprights for front and rear. Simple as that. At the end of the day, they have to make money. Performance comes about 5th... behind legal issues and safety... haha.
