GR Yaris - How to Drive it properly 💪

[@mariusvlad2090]

The rear-view mirror is perfectly positioned for optimal view.

[@thewaldfe9763]

That's a problem on many modern cars: the pillar on the left is positioned in a way that you cannot see where you are going on left turns (okay, unless you are drifting 😜) and the mirror is positioned in a way that you can hardly see anything on right turns. Really stupid, how this is legal. You need to have all kind of airbags, etc. to get a good safety rating, but being able to look outside of the car doesn't seem to be a consideration at all.

[@mitchellsteindler]

@TSS996GT they actually took a deposit from you? I only got put on a list, second position, no deposit. Hopefully for you that means you're likely to actually get one!

Hard disagree - it's a very popular car here in Estonia and I don't know a single one that doesn't get (ab)used on track and ice driving competitions. The modifying scene also caught up real quick and the main modifications done here are for rally purposes.

[@shortfattoad7317]

I agree, if I bought one I would not be able to do it justice, for one thing, the second I broke the wheels loose on a bend, I would lose my license. And we have some of the best bends here (20+ passes)...

@@VeliRajasaar good for you guys, meanwhile in my country it's used as shopping cart. 95% of GRs will never see track. My friend got one, used it for like week and then never even turned it on, why? Because he daily drives 911 turbo s and just like majority of people that bought it he did it because he could, not because he cared about having it as it's just small little addiction to his collection.

[@RB26N]

what skills man, properly driven indeed. Also that AWD pull out of drift gives so much confidence boost, AWD is truly best all condition drivetrain.

[@impactguide]

Wow, like others have said, what an incredibly display of skill! The first drift around the bend and the 180 literally gave me goose bumps, haha. But, what I don't understand is, why don't we see car chases filmed like this in the movies?
