Re: Toyota Yaris GR
spudgun:I had one for a weekend but my wife said I looked like a sixteen year old retard. Brilliant drivetrain though.

Had exactly the same insult thrown at me, I wasn't even in the Yaris.

Re: Toyota Yaris GR
reginos:Notwithstanding the dynamics, how is this car on longer trips? I mean in terms of comfort, noises, and feeling of security at higher speeds.
Is it comparable to a powerful MINI, for example in this respect?

I dare to say better than the Mini

There is no try. Just do.
Re: Toyota Yaris GR
Rossi:Interesting. I guess this is the more hardcore version of the GR Yaris, so something like the GR Yaris RS.
It's the GR yaRiS

Re: Toyota Yaris GR
Toyota GR Corolla
2023 Toyota GR Corolla leaked ahead of reveal, with engine outputs
Powering the car will be the GR Yaris' 1.6-litre turbocharged three-cylinder petrol engine – but rather than the smaller three-door's 200kW/370Nm, outputs has been turned up to 224kW and 370Nm, per rumours out of Japan in recent months.
Drive will continue to be sent to all four wheels on tarmac or gravel through a six-speed manual transmission only, with no automatic available – at least at launch.
The gearbox is connected to a GR-Four all-wheel drive system, with the same choice of Normal, Sport and Track modes as the Yaris, capable of sending up to 70 per cent of the power to the rear wheels.

Re: Toyota Yaris GR
Thinking about possibly trading the Evo for the GR Corolla. Has the GR Yaris continued to satisfy those of you who own one?

I have one, actually since yesterday, so still have to break it in. 
So far: great little car, feels rock solid and drives so nimble. Would do it again.

Re: Toyota Yaris GR
Snap! Good taste sir LOL!
Mine is on the way from Japan and is scheduled to be in my garage by end if the month.
Been busy buying upgrade parts for it as it will be seeing track duty. Braid 9J wheels, rubber, pads, brake lines & fluid, DTUK stage 2 tune, exhaust, mirror riser, strut brace, intake filter etc etc.
Starting to get a bit excited now. Ive driven a friends one and it was the perfect antidote to low traction surfaces, winter driving etc. Amazing grip! Two others I drive with use theirs as track cars and quite frequently they are approached after a session by drivers of more powerful cars who are impressed with the ability the car has to keep up with them lap upon lap...

Re: Toyota Yaris GR
Grant. I dont know much about the GR Corolla only what I read, but I think you will be very happy. It looks like a great package and their will be a whole industry of hop up parts available for it in no time. Maybe like me you will use it at the track from time to time so you can run uninsured and without the GT3 consumerable costs. Better yet if you get in early I think you will find they hold their value very well and with warranty etc will be a very low cost medium term hold...

But isn't the Corolla much heavier than the Yaris? Over 200 or even 250 kg?

Yes. It is 200kg more. But it has 300PS vs the 272PS our GR Yaris have in NZ. It is easy to tune the Yaris to 320-340 bhp now they have cracked the ECU so I suspect the same for GR Corolla. With 340 bhp the 1480kg GR Corolla should still be a winner with AWD. Better performing than Focus RS as lighter with a better drivetrain...
Also the GR Yaris was never exported to USA so there are few other options.
