how will the key fob look? - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

mokinbird87 · 11-04-2011, 08:57 PM

now that we know the FR-S can be had with a keyless entry and ignition, i was wondering how the key fob design will look? maybe something close to this?

hope not cuz it's so boring...

If the push button start is an option and not standard, I'm going to say it'll be like the tC RS fob and the key will look like the standard Scion.

I'd assume it would look similar to the new 2011 TC key.

I just wish if they will offer the classic keys (love holding my beloved car keys in my hand) but if Toyota going with the modern style keys hope they make it like the LC200 key like this

if you really care all that much, I've seen people buy different housings for the key and just placing it in them. The outside is essentially a plastic box/cover.

I would be happy with that.

Hope we can colour match it to our colours :P

(Color is always spelt with a u!!! Colour!!!)

it's not something that will keep me from buying the car but it would be nice to have a well designed piece for such an important car.

I hope it is made out of carbon fiber!

A friend of mine bought a Jaguar key housing for his Fiesta, kind of pointless cos if someone saw it and went "wow you've got a jag?!" He'd have to say 'No... a Fiesta..." but that key was about as beautiful as a fob can get...

... are the Lexus/Toyota/Scion ones all the same in design and function?

Ryuu0u · 11-05-2011, 01:21 AM

You can buy aftermarket ones also if your not happy with it. Other than that im guessing it will look like the generic ones Toyota has now, no need to reinvent the wheel(or key fob). I kinda want the one that is like a switch blade with the key inside just in case the battery dies. Saw it on the gen coupe forum awhile ago and thought it looked spiffy.

That in black with the FT86 Boxer logo on the back in silver would look soo badass.

I hope it looks like a Transformer!

Hope it light weight and powerful.
