I Bought A New Toyota GR Yaris!

[@MaxStraesser]

The perfect 2-car garage for anyone without two or more kids. This is the stuff of dreams, Luke. Nicely done!

[@carswithluke]

Sure is man!

[@mustafajoseph134]

Wish they had brought this into North America instead of the less aesthetic Corolla

[@owerr66]

I'm confused, where are those two kids going in? one in each passenger seat? lol

I have three kids - works well. :)

[@timorgano]

Congrats dude. I can't say I'm totally surprised. Your video with the white one showed how much you love the car. Fantastic video, too. Your cinematography is among the best I've ever seen.

[@StefanAndersen00]

An in-depth video on how you finance the GT3, as well as the requirements in Switzerland would be welcome. I.e what size of deposit do you need to put down on a car like the GT3, how much does the bank expect you to earn in order for them to grant you a loan on a GT3 etc.

[@carswithluke]

Sounds good!

This scenery is just wonderful, literally a winter wonderland. For me here in Germany it's just miserable always wet and muddy no snow whatsoever. To then have a car like this must be a dream happy for you Luke, and big thumbs up for Toyota Switzerland👍🏻

[@RagicaltheUnhallowedKnight]

One thing I've noticed is that on every video about this GR is, that there's always a combination of smirks, smiles and grins with no exceptions

[@andreroux3272]

I installed the Eventuri air intake and Akrapovic exhaust on my GR Yaris. Initially I thought that I wasted my money with the exhaust, however I have come to love it. You can drive at low rpm and the car has a nice growl but nothing obnoxious and then when you put down foot the extra sound really enhances the whole experience.

[@carswithluke]

Good to know! I also have the eventuri on the way :)

[@mihaijurchescu8331]

I am also thinking of changing the exhaust, but i m not sure what to choose between miltek non resonated and akrapovic

[@carswithluke]

@@mihaijurchescu8331 If money is no issue I would go Akra but sadly the one for the Yaris is not legal here in Swiss.

[@Nishan113]

@@carswithluke It's illegal everywhere, it's meant only for track. However I had it installed in Slovenia with the link pipe aswell, and have no problems whatsoever.

I really appreciate that u talk about the way you finance your cars, being honest about leasing cars is something we need more !

[@dabriga7]

Congrats bro! You made it, I also purchased mine last months paid in cash. While watching this video I feel very proud of who I am and what I've accomplished. I'm glad I made a wise financial choice that changed me.

good car bro..........

[@caverat4043]

Luke, i could listen to you read me a book to bed, the vibes on this channel are outstanding

[@Sambysaurus]

Black compliments this car so well. I love the headlights and the stance of the car.

[@carswithluke]

Exactly! Stance will also be even better soon…

[@HubraumTV]

Enjoy it! Have mine since December 2020 and in the snow, there‘s few cars matching the fun!

[@sergiopereira9546]

I mean if you are a car enthusiast and you want to have fun in the snow the GR Yaris is probably the best car out there , small, nimble and incredible grip even on the snow . There's no bad days to drive this car apparently. Great choice 👍

[@paulclaeys7631]

Aah yes... snow. Pure heaven. People say I'm crazy here in Belgium for wanting snow. Nothing beats destroying other cars on the road who are panicking along at 15 kph 😊 I just absolutely love it. Perfect Luke. You're doing it right!!!! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

[@heelandtoe_]

Congrats on the car mate! Truly a perfect 2-car solution. I genuinely was surprised by the sound of the 3 cylinder, i really like it! Nice and throaty (well, it is half a 6 cylinder so makes sense - kind of like a v12 sounds similar to a 6 cylinder). Also, all the snow is giving me real FOMO!

[@51KTM51Hurricane]

Love my GR Yaris. Is now a year and a month with me. Sound is amplified not fake as I know . Greetings from zurich

[@jesperhvid9667]

Excellent choice, Luke. An instant classic with Toyota reliability and warranty.

[@carswithluke]

Thanks and yes definitely!

[@ricardoteixeira2776]

[@robomeara9860]

Congratulations Luke, you’re driving the exact same GR as mine. I have had nothing but pleasure from it, but no snow yet in UK

[@rishabbennett]

That is quite a 2 car garage you got there Luke!!

[@carswithluke]

Indeed, very happy!

[@Richz2]

Good start to the year!

[@tonyfarrant1095]

Great vid as always Luke welcome to the GRY club! Toyota (UK supplying dealer) turned off my fake sound last week (no charge), so much better there’s still plenty of sound but now I can hear more of what the engine is doing, only other great mod is to change stock wiper blades to Bosch leaves no film like stock one do. Keep up the great work all the best Tony

[@carswithluke]

Cheers and good to know I will do that, also ordered led lights for the number plate as I thought they look cheap.

[@bob778_6]

To turn off the fake sound on your GR Yaris you can get your local Toyota dealer to turn it off with their software or if you have the ability yourself you can plug into the OBD and switch it off that way. In any case it's not that difficult to do and still sounds pretty great with it turned off.

[@carswithluke]

Nice thanks! Will call the dealer on Monday then.

[@bob778_6]

@@carswithluke This is what I did with mine in Australia & it should be no different in Switzerland.

[@Murphisto]

Congrats on your GR! I have exactly the same spec. What can i say... best car ive ever owned living in a city and enjoying quicker driving. There are some tricks to turn off all the TC, but i think you know that. There is this mobile OBD2 dongle called CARISTA which lets you turn off the engine sounds or warning sounds etc. Keep it happy with lots of oil changes cool down time and i think this beauty will be just fine!

[@carswithluke]

Thanks, appreciate the advice!

[@kaybe3044]

Wow Luke you are absolutely living your own dream. GT3 and GR Yaris. What a life man.

[@MT-eb2dx]

Sound Generator can be turned off with the carista app and an odb2 dongle, I used the trial period. Another tip, don't bother with a mirror raiser, you won't see further than 50m behind with it!

[@20gibbon]

I to would go for a black one to, not see as many on the road as the white ones even though they look really cool as well.

[@mugenmark]

Congrats Luke. Fortunate to own a GR Yaris myself (scarlet red, circuit pack) and just need a GT3 to go with it now, but the GR really is a very special thing. Made mine better (IMO) with a HKS exhaust and remap so would recommend that to give it the voice it deserves.

Congratulations on acquiring one of your dreams. Thanks for sharing.

Hi Luke! Are those snow tires? For the fake engine sound, you can buy a Carista OBDII device and turn it off. Many other options to activate/cancel too (I activated the 1 keyfob button windows activation, up and down). Enjoy it's a fun car!

Welcome to the club! Also have a black one with similar mods and thoughts on stealth which is nice to hear from a GT3 owner. Our other car isn't a GT3 though, but for our family the perfect 2 car garage (rwd EV, roomy, comfy and still fun to drive for dad...)

[@KarlkEst]

Engine sound can be turned off with Carista app, if you buy the Carista OBD reader then you will get 1-year free subscription. Also turn off some of the warning sounds, they are a bit too annoying sounding on GR. What about warranty when you are planning a new intake? Must-have mod is seat lowering kit! Especially when the other car is Porsche or BMW.

[@Doggepp]

Nice choice dude! I am in love with my GR, I feel like I never want to sell it. Only exception is if they bring those new Kalle Rovaperä and Sebastien Ogier editions to europe.

[@richardtjandra6941]

We have the same taste! I have a GR Yaris (modified now with lots of goodies) & also a 991.2 GT3. Totally different beasts. Different purpose but both lots of fun!

[@samuelmazzoli4822]

Super video and super car!! I installed the eventuri intake and the noises it produces are just amazing. Same with my Remus exhaust, very satisfied with it. As for the fake sound I did it with carista obd, super simple and straightforward

Great scenery complementing the car, congrats on the purchase! May I suggest a look at Alunox for an exhaust, can build to spec in titanium pretty reasonably +the CHF:GBP is favourable to say the least! Coupled with the Swiss TUV/Euro-6 approved HJS/Miltek sportcat down pipe and a carista ODB delete of engine noise augmentation it's the perfect practical rally hatch.
