NEW CAR DAY! We Bought 2 Toyota GR Yaris! Find Out Why? + FIRST DRIVE | TheCarGuys.tv

[@simonlaland]

There’s a rather neat little hack you can do on the rear view mirror they did it on Harry’s Garage just lifts it up and back a bit

[@lawrencecurtis812]

Hi. You will love the Yaris. I picked mine up at the end of June and I’m still grinning! It is one hell of a car, fast and very capable. It makes every outing an event and you can’t stop smiling or even laughing out loud. It sometimes feels as though the car spurs you on to go faster. When you do give it the beans and then have reason to stop, traffic lights, pedestrian crossings, etc you find yourself panting/laughing and then realise your alone in the car and you ought to compose yourself before your seen. You do get a lot of people trying to race you as well. I’ve found I prefer mine to be in track (4WD safer) all the time, I do switch everything else off but I do switch the IMT on which blips the engine when you change down. I can’t heel and toe, I’m to busy hanging on! The Yaris is a great car and really good fun and worth more than they cost, a bit like a Rolex? Enjoy. Lawrence.

[@andreasathome]

You guys have quickly become my favorite car channel. No bullshit no marketing just honest and funny content. Love it. Thank you so much!

[@TheCarGuysTV]

Cheers, Andreas

[@jonathancollard3710]

Just took delivery on mine today…. WOW… what a car. Competent, composed and crazy quick in “real world’ conditions. Ok, I’ve paid over list price, but honestly, anyone that gets one of the 2500 allocated to U.K., is mad to sell it on. Deffo going to be a keeper in any collection… VERY HAPPY 😀

[@palethorpe01]

I just love the intro Guys. Absolutely fantastic. It's so refreshing from the usual rubbish of 'Loud' crap that other so called KZbinrs normally present us enthusiasts with. Pure passion, and comedy at it's finest.

[@calj2405]

In 30 years time people will look back on these cars and dream about driving one. Future classics for sure. Living the dream. 👍

[@warboyrb]

Bloody awesome mates. GR Yaris is an absolute hoot, and you guys are 100% spot on about the tiny niggles that just had to be overcome every time you start it up. I literally have a muscle memory now to automatically press lane keep assist and auto start/stop every time I press the starter button. I also love driving it in Track mode, normal is a bit too understeery. 😅

[@mattylf1]

It's like having Cagney & Lacey back together ! Need something like a road trip with the two cars.

[@myou6675]

Was thinking something similar. Starsky and Hutch maybe more complimentary?

[@Peter-Oxley-Modelling-Lab]

Great to see Jason back on the team! Speaking as a former GT86 driver, delighted to see you with these 2 pocket-rockets! I am jealous! I reckon fun-per-pound you have the best value out there. FAB! 👍🏻

[@darrenprior6339]

Hey guys. Super pleased you two bought one of these little ripper cars. I'm from Oz and took delivery of mine earlier in the year. I noticed you mentioned that each time you get in the car you have to switch the engine auto-on/off button off. Not sure if it's the same in the UK as over here but if I put mine in sport mode that horrid auto on/off thing stays permanently off. Of course, still means you have to religiously switch the car to Sport but I reckon it's the best mode for all-round fun. Cheers, and thanks as always for a great video

[@cmeeson100]

Great to see the gang back together. Really looking forward to a Sunbeam Lotus vs GR Yaris video.

[@marklawrence9416]

Brilliant video, brilliant cars. Takes me back to the late 80s. I was a high school teacher and a bit of a petrol head. My colleague and I both bought a Renault GT turbo, mine was pearlescent white and his was black. They looked fab parked next to each other in the staff car park. The teenage lads were pretty impressed. 😀😀😀

[@leighburton1658]

Harry Metcalfe does a fix to get the rear view mirror higher. Check out his video on his GR Yaris

[@TheCarGuysTV]

Already checked out

[@soulmaster63]

Love you guys! You’re true car enthusiasts and not car snobs. You’re buying enthusiast cars from the entire spectrum. Thanks for the great content.

[@waynemoore9951]

Great to see Jason back on the channel, has he been moonlighting as a Chris charming doppelganger? Only sent with comedic love

[@garynorman5179]

So pleased to see Jason bacl!

[@tomingrassiaimages8776]

Welcome back Jason. So cool that you both have the same car!! Don't forget about your trip to the U S.A one of these non covid days. Big fan base over here.

[@TheCarGuysTV]

👍👍

[@blitzpixgarage3319]

I picked up my red one yesterday (here in germany) after 8 months waiting...it's just GREAT...nice video guys!

[@davidhunternyc1]

The GR Yaris looks brilliant in white and black !!! I have no idea which color I prefer between the two. Do you guys have a preference? I’m tired of bright colors. I love the neutral colors.

[@micsub]

Great stuff ! Good choice. These are excellent little pocket rockets for mountain roads

[@benjaminsmall2803]

Welcome back Jason! Good vibes in this one. Congrats on the new car Damian!!

[@Holmseyboy0104]

I ordered one of these literally straight after seeing Jason's review video in Feb, was told may 2022 but managed to bag a cancelled order so got it in June in the end, I've never had any performance car before, and I don't know why anyone would need any more than this beauty! Rattles a lot though! Can't wait to see what you do with them, honest mods / tweaks that you want to make your car actually better, not just because it's out there and you're a 'youtuber'

[@andysp8845]

Great to see Jason! Welcome back!

[@jon8687]

Good to see Jason return. Thanks for the excellent video. Darth Vader with his Storm Trooper?

[@Ronstar1266]

Good to see you guys back together, great episode..... I need a GR in my life now

[@Billywoo12]

White is the better colour as the lumps and bumps are easier to see. But it’s an amazing car so I would take one in prosthetic beige if pushed!

[@YourMajestyTheKing]

black is more snazzy.

[@zakelwe]

The reason why the GR Yaris is so good is because B roads are so good ... ;) I'm guessing the Toyota dealer was better than the Lotus one for a cheaper car !

[@Kullgan]

Well it looks like Darth Vader helmet lol

[@popsbubbles1242]

Now Damian you can start to unload all your other sports cars you have the perfect one for British weather and roads Jason at last the car guy's' channel makes sense Glad to see you back

[@timhayward6833]

Well done getting it a bit earlier than you expected. I’d love to see comparison between Yaris and the Elise on twisties and on a trip. And Damian, might as well get your exhaust changed.

[@joelpethick3406]

You should do a Wales trip with them! Like Brecon beacons or Snowdonia or something they would flyyyy down those roads

[@TheCarGuysTV]

It’s happening! 👍

[@joelpethick3406]

@@TheCarGuysTV The perfect cars for the job! That'll be immense fun

[@stephenteerling7373]

if the white one is a storm troopers helmet, the black one is darth vader's helmet

[@kanwarjotgill5294]

The Black Yaris does look good.

[@piczoo]

Congratulations on the purchase! They are astonishing cars, I've had mine for a couple of months now, and loving it. you've bought just at the right time, in the weather, with greasy roads, the car is even more impressive :)

[@borinvlogs]

I like these cars. Not too crazy expensive, but still a lot of fun. Also Toyota is very reliable and built to last very long.

[@kevincockburn7805]

A great little car. And compared to some of the others in the collection, a relatively affordable one. In a bang per buck equation it is probably one of the best in the collection.

[@mwinters714]

Wish we could get these in the US. Thanks for sharing 👍.

[@dam00r]

Just a fantastic video. Thank you for this. Now I want one, and to see more of it on your channel

[@79blustone]

I've got mine on order, May '22. I'm checking the 'MY TOYOTA' app every day just incase. I'm hoping my dealer will call me and say there has been a cancellation and we can bump you right up the list 🤞. I've ordered the platinum white pearl but I kinda wish I opted for the Scarlet red pearl. 🤷. I'm going to keep it completely standard as it will hold its price plus I'm not down for the 'crashed through Halfords' look.

[@robertllewellyn2823]

I picked my GR up yesterday, 15/06/22. Pearlescent white Circuit Pack, and I'm loving it.

[@TheCarGuysTV]

Nice one

[@johnrb9397]

Oh yeah baby the dynamic duo are back!! 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊FFS!!!

[@tonisolla8335]

Congratulations,I’m sooooo jealous as I deferred my allocation from last July to May 2022, a red circuit pack. Would be great to get your black and white ones together with my red one some day. Please keep the great video’s coming.👍

[@iantownsend500]

Half a tank for new car isn’t bad. I bought a Renault a while ago that had 7 miles left

[@ghostridertom]

Black & White team. And super that you will have it for the winter drives. You can turn the artificial sound off and buy a nice catback ;-).

[@Richspjones]

Brilliant! The Stormtrooper is introduced to Darth Vader. I saw one here in Singapore recently and it definitely had an aftermarket exhaust fitted. Sounded quite fruity when he applied the beans following my thumbs up. Looking forward to the next instalment of Little and Large / Rodney and Del Boy / French and Saunders (delete as applicable)!

[@Bluenose372]

The boys are back in town….. more please….. Congrats Damian…

[@Haroosh20]

Welcome back Jason. We need a garage update from you soon. How’s the Sunbeam going?

[@jon.steele]

Lidl content ahoy!!! I'm expecting lots of twin car content excellent. Great to see you both back on a video

[@barrydixon3692]

Great to see Jason, aka Robin, back. Shame its only for a brief time. Congratulations on your new car, a keeper for sure. Once again a dealer isn't up to par (although no by much) only half a tank of fuel 🤔 Its the little details that are most important. Enjoy!!!

[@richardcarter1000]

Well done. Looking forward to some adventures. Welcome back Jason.

[@davemclean8667]

Love that black. Definitely better of the 2. But both are awesome!

[@65Antonis]

The black one is more a Darth Vader thing! 😋

[@davidgraham293]

There is now an after market part that moves the mirror up a little 👍

[@jaysmartin]

I saw a black GR earlier and I wondered who it was “ploughing” through the forest! 🍻

[@jimfray4266]

Great stuff.. I love the GR and Talbot Sunbeam Lotus so looking forward to that.

[@dam00r]

Definitely a small tour around Scandinavia in the winter

[@shaughnmcgurk9380]

Get them on track. Race for ‘pink slips’. Less fast and furious, more seasoned and hilarious. Great to see the two of you back together and in good form. You’ll also be happy to know that I’ve finally got a car with beans. Looking forward to more adventures from the caped crusaders.

[@TheJustaviewman]

If the White is a Stormtrooper, the Black is Darth Vader. Both have a shifter that is your light saber. May the Toyota be with you.

[@markplayford5836]

It’s black & white really Everyone should have a GR Yaris. 👍

[@wolves1247]

Another great episode and congrats on the new car

[@invisiblekid99]

Can’t help torturing myself watching Yaris GR video and just found you guys. Really good. I have to wait till 2023 for mine. Yikes. Cannot believe the waiting times for a Toyota. Mines white and I honestly love the colour. But I do think from the back, white is the worst colour. Interestingly I Was offered a black one ready for May 22, but I didn’t want to risk not having the spare cash. Great channel guys.

[@TheCarGuysTV]

At least you’ve managed to get one - they are now all sold out

[@invisiblekid99]

@@TheCarGuysTV true. It’s a huge indulgence for me, as it will be a weekend car. But I can’t not have this car.

[@TheCarGuysTV]

You will not regret it

[@keesie75]

They just needs an exhaust and taking the wrap of the roof. :D

[@jimsgaragetoys]

Must be nice! I would love to have just one GR Yaris be we aren't so lucky here in the states. I'm waiting on the GR Corolla that is supposed to land here by the end of 2023. bother year to wait.

[@markhunt7218]

Picked mine up last week too (red one), love it.

[@R-Tap]

My Corolla hybrid also has that letterbox problem, I also have a dash cam and my phone stuck to the screen. I put it town to the rake of the screen which makes it feel quite short with not enough viewable area!

[@davetomley3145]

Glad it’s finally arrived. Perfect car for where you live. Might be another car for you to fettle the interior and make it your own?

[@Sherlock535]

Think you should do a winter Alps or Finland trip, Monte Carlo or 1000 Lakes style 🤘

[@TheCarGuysTV]

Oh yes!

[@leedorey1490]

Not my cup of tea but I applaud Toyota for making it.

[@benclinch6056]

Can’t wait to get mine in may 🤞🏻

When is the next Yaris vid chaps ?

[@andrewnorris5415]

Welcome back! If you took the outer shirt off - you would both have matching back and white T-shirts!

[@savagegtalks5912]

Lada Niva and GR Yaris the two best cars ever made imo... One day I have them both.

[@andrewnorris5415]

The mean black needs red wheels! matches the callipers too. Nothing like a bit of red with black.

[@anonanon7497]

Red wheels??

[@nickw1322]

Half a tank you are lucky! 😆

[@911aircooled5]

Nice one lads! How is the quality of finish on these? Toyota-ish? cheap?

[@markopolo9559]

Tim Shmee bought a kit to raise the rear view mirror, exhaust and back seat delete, are you planning on doing mods to the Yaris?

[@TheCarGuysTV]

Good to know

Congratulations, great car 🥃

[@93455Driver]

Not really fair to call this a Yaris, very few shared parts. Very jealous, no GR Yaris for the US, we will get a GR Corolla which sadly may be a warmed up Corolla as opposed to a proper ground up development like the GR Yaris. In fact I bet they would sell tons of GR badged Rav 4's as long as the car can still hold the kids sports gear, groceries, and lots of coffee cup holders.

[@jackcarter3034]

Amazing video 👍🏻

[@ingocernohorsky]

Has the white one a lowered Suspension?
