Most cars are the same. For the front just a little bit back behind the wheel well, for the back a little bit before the wheel well. If you look underneath you will see a little metal lip with some indactors on there where to place your jack.

That I do know, but, where do you place the floor jack to get the front or back of the car up so you can place the jack stands under the car?

I usually put it under the frame, both for the floor jacks and the stands, cause i dont trust the scissor jacks for workin under the car... if u look where the indicators are for the scissor jack, look a bit more inboard and you'll see the black frame, theres a bolt stickin out of the frame, just put the jack in front of the bolt, theres enough room

I can't say that I know where to put the floor jack in referrence to the front and middle of the car. However if you are using a floor jack on a car and are lifting either front side, there is usually a larger flat spot right under the strut tower and suspension assemble with one bolt and nut in the middle that is a load bearing point for all vehicles. Hope this helps.
