No f...ing way! Make it look as the rest of the boring Toyota line-up of vegetable transports?

Headliner in a good car, particulary sports car has to be dark! Thank you Toyota for understanding this!

The headliner really changes it into a boring commuter haha, actually its an ergonomic trick that many automobile makers do that make the interior feel more roomy and open.

Dont get me wrong I dont really care that much but it does make a difference (also plenty of sports cars have light headliners; Porsche, certain bmws, and certain benzs etc)

That picture is not from a car that would be sold in the UK. Drivers position is on the wrong side of the car.

This guy got carried away with caps lock.

What am I gonna do with heated mirrors, when I don't winter drive my car? I live in Montreal, we don't have the luxury of easy winters like you guys in Southern Ontario - therefore, she sits in a garage all winter long.

I'd love to have power mirrors for parking downtown, where the old one way roads are very narrow.

It's just a personal preference. I know it doesn't make sense for most Canadians to have power mirrors instead of heated mirrors. But there's no reason why we can't have both.

Geeeez chill!
Capitals can be used for EMPHASIS you know!
I think you read more into my simple post than was there. Wasn't criticizing your preference just asking when you pull your mirrors in!
Beyond driving Army trucks trough German villages I have never in my life felt the need to pull in my mirrors much less need powered ones.


Don't think I would enjoy driving down roads where I had to pull my mirrors in on an FRS.
Not sure how much time you spend near London but we are far from having "easy winters" here. We get snow off of 3 different lakes and it can be brutal.

All the luxury cars (except for Tesla unfortunately) provide choice for the headliner color. And top engines usually come with black headliner by default. E.g. M cars, AMG cars, as well as respective M-packages for "plain" BMWs and AMG-packages for Mecs. More mass market cars usually don't provide such a luxury of choice. That's why I'm really happy that Toyobaru has the black one as the "by default" option.

I actually don't like it because you can see all the scratches more and it's a little more distracting than black.

Interesting about the engine type I said that because MB SLS had a white roof/interior and a few other "sport cars" but can't remember if they were the top engine. Maybe you're on to something or we're just making a larger connection than needed.

Sadly my black liner attracts scuffs like crazy

It's taxes. In the Philippines we pay about 40k US for a GT86.

I guess the most expensive FRS/86 in the world is Singapore. About $ 130000 USD

Some people like driving around in a car that look like it went through a bath of doggy poo?
