Toyota FT-86 II Concept Height Estimate Study - Page 2 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

the fact its a 2+2 allows me to buy it as i have 2 kids. without the back seats, the chance of my buying is reduced significantly.

I had some free time at work today so I decided to scale the x-ray view. All of the dimensions matched up with the length, height, and wheelbase specs. The 41" shown is at eye level in the drivers seat.

Cool, Manny.

Very thorough.

20-in. rims, then? 18-in.?

Thanks! In that image, the rims scaled out to 21".

21 would be huge for a 200 hp car, no?

Think of all that unsprung weight

Yeah it makes no sense to have anything near that size one a car like this. I'll work up another side view with 17" rims.

I'm no expert, but 17-in. rims on this car sounds about right.

MannyO · 09-16-2011, 01:54 PM

17's

Very nice MannyO,

.

I figured they were huge wheels. But who would have thought that they would use 6' people for a seating comparison? They must be thinking about the tall broz!

I am 6' so this is good news to me. Even though I won't be sitting in the back.

SKIS?

What do you folks think? Is it going to be possible to throw skis in the back of this bad boy. I'm starting to have doubts. My skis are 161cm to 180cm. That works out to a minimum length of 63.4in and up to 70.9 inches. At these lengths will the skis be blocking the shifter?

Yes, I do plan on driving it in snow.

roofrack?!

This is the only option for my bike!

Marrk · 09-16-2011, 05:04 PM

Gee, Manny, images like your last remind me that this might turn out to be one helluva sexy car.

This is perfect for trunk space guestimates! Could you please calculate how far back the driver seat is from the front of the car?

I think it's around 90 inches. Meaning there is only 70 inches MAX from the back of the drivers seat to the trunk opening?

I just confirmed with AutoCAD. From the front of the car to the back of the drivers seat is 96" which leaves 70" for the trunk.
