Because people buy a V6 to be more economical. The rear end on the GTs and up just cost more!

Actually inthe V6, or anyopendifferential, either wheel can be the 'drive wheel', otherwise you couldn't go around corners.

with an open diff only one wheel gets power the other just free turns
with an open you can have one wheel held in place and the other spinning as fast as you want
