Warning: do not sit on top of trunk lid - Page 2 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

I guess thanks for the warning. As we all know body panels on older cars are more thicker than modern cars.

On a side note, other people and I use sit on the trunk of my old E34 and Supra all the time and nothing happen.

Only the hood is aluminum.

I knew the hood was aluminum, heard the trunk was as well, guess not. Thanks for the clarification Pete.

The supra makes enough hp so you can sit on it without damage.

And the 5-series was once driven by Bond, so...

My gf tried to sit on the hood of my car once, trying to be sexy.

I promptly broke up with her.

Tromatic · 05-30-2014, 06:39 PM

I still can not wrap my head around someone who would use this (or any car) as a chair.

I use to drive out to the desert and lay down on the hood of my old hyundai elentra with my ex gf and watch the stars.

But with this car I'm worried if I scrub too hard when washing her I will dent her as this car is made out of balsa wood. But I guess it saves on weight because racecar.

People use to sit or lean on my RX-7 all time

I would be like WTF, please get off my car and they would look at me like I'm crazy or stupid.

Someone actually cracked my driver side headlight cover. It flew off on the highway after the meet

After

Not to mention scratching the paint.
When I picked up my car there were scratches all over the passenger fender that looked just like someone had leaned against it and started shaking their ass!
