Trunk Space question
Im trying my very best to purchase a used 350Z as we speak, but I have a quick question about the space in the hatch. What can be removed to create a bit more room? I ride a BMX bike daily, but there doesn't seem to be much room for one back there. I know that you cant actually remove that strus bar, but is it possible to remove alot of that bulky plastic around it? And what else can be removed back there to create a bit more room? Im not concerned with how it might look with plastic cosmetic pieces missing. thanks.

if you remove the mats and the spare tire you'll free up some space. The problem really is the strut bar though...since it prevents big objects from fitting . If it weren't for the strut bar the trunk space would be decent.

Get a bike rack, you'll never fit a BMX bike in the rear of the Z even if you pull out the spare tire and all of the mats. Even by chance if you did fit one in, you would scratch the heck out of the paint, plastic, etc.
Get a bike rack, you'll save yourself time, damage, and headaches.

well, i wanted to avoid a bike rack because of weather reasons, as well as luck I've had on other cars with some racks leaving marks and scratches from the hooks or buckles, as well as any sort of shaking. And I wanted to avoid a hitch style rack because of the unwanted added weight that a receiver adds. But if that's the only option then ohwell. And just for the record, I currently have a scion, and so I hope that explains why Im pursuing this car. But thanks for all the help everyone.
