By "shorter wheelbase" I meant relative to "normal" sedans and wagons. For sure any FT86 shooting brake would have the same wheelbase and width as the normal version.

I never saw this car as a grocery getter,but more akin to how a Miata is. It's just a fun little car that's meant for spirited driving,and imo making a shooting brake version doesn't go along with that.
Why not? Same car, just with some additional space. No reason fun during spirited drives should be impacted at all.
Miata shooting brake would also be a fine idea

I guess it's kind of interesting to see what it would look like,but I don't think there's ever a snowball's chance in hell that it would ever become a reality.
Agreed. And it's too bad...
