Let's hope. In the RX-8 the similar type tank it is the cause of fuel starvation when below 1/3 to 1/4 full. Not fun, but not killer either, just very consistant and so one needs to keep above that level to avoid an embarrassing fuel cutout sputtering after high G turns. Of course, this ONLY happens on a racetrack circuit.

Also the tank is direclty under the back seat cushions, just pull them up and you can remove the cover and fuel pump and peer into the tank (#3).
