Breen says the cost of replacing the full-size spare wheel, jack and wheel brace works out to about the same as the cost of fitting the compressor and can of tyre repair goo inside a special housing in the boot well.

So from what I read, not only is it that you don't get a spare, you wont get any jack or tools either.
Even if you got a spare some other way you still need to spend money on tools and a jack so you can change it.

Breen said a space-saver spare tyre was not available for the Toyota 86.
"That option wasn't available to us," Breen says. "I can't tell you why. All I know is that the option for us was the tyre repair kit."

I can't understand why this is the case since other markets use a space saver...
The tyre repair kit would have been useless for me a couple of years ago when I ran over a meat hook on the highway... Unless they now can stitch a sidewall back together.... :P
