Photo Proof: Scion FR-S loaded with 4 mounted wheels and track tools

[86'd]

I don't think I'll ever do a track day, but it seems there's more than enough space for a trip to the grocery store, a bike, a baby and a stroller...maybe not all at once though...

It also looks like you could fit the tires "standing", you could probably fit at least another tire in there.

If anything, this proof of a more than usable trunk, is good "wife justification."

lol look how far forward the seats are. Hope you're 5' flat

Of course the 4 tires would fit but it looks awfully tight in the front seat.

Those cannot possibly be production quality, they look ridiculous. And I very much doubt they are seatbelt guides, I have not seen them in any other photos. Why would you need a seatbelt guide anyways - my car has a very similar seat/B-pillar/seatbelt arrangement and does not have or need a seatbelt guide.

Or invisible extension of tool box
Chop is more likely though...

That's just another glossy-black toolbox. The lighting is messing with your eyes lol

If the spoiler came standard equipped then the 3rd brake light would have been integrated into the spoiler

It has been brought up before and even with the spoiler it looks out of place. Maybe it's because the base is exposed and not a boxed unit that is flush with the panel.

I suppose a re-route of an LED light wouldn't be too hard, right?

They are so the belt doesnt slide off the shoulder. The Camaro has the same exact thing. On videos of the FR-S you can see that the seatbelt goes through that loop. If that was not there a person would have to reach back behind the seat to the B pillar to grab the belt. Trust me, they would not have a handle there that the seatbelt just lays on, and I can assure you the bottom connection is a snap, which is why the top is looped over (room for the seatbelt and allows the guide to pop open easier to put the belt through).

It would easy. Just re-route the wiring along the glass and mount it on the top. Avoiding the law would probably be the toughest part.

If they loaded the tires as Toyota recommends by stacking two tires where the spare is stored, there is probably a little more room to push the seats back. Of course, if you're heading to the track odds are you aren't carrying a passenger, nor is a more upright seating position closer to the steering wheel and pedals an issue.
