Toyota Corolla GR vs Subaru BRZ: Track Test

GR Corolla, GR Yaris, BRZ or GR86?

[@KG_GRC]

GRC or GRY anyday! Love my Circuit GRC!

[@tylers82]

Id like to see how a 2011 Subaru WRX STI Hatchback compares to these modern machines.

[@tylers82]

My answer is GR Rolla tho

[@purwantiallan5089]

​@@tylers82why you picked the GR Corolla? I belive BRZ is as amazing and gorgeous as the Corolla.

[@johnshoemaker6684]

Living in the land of Trucks and Suv's I am thankful that I had the option to pick up a GR Corolla Circuit Edition at MSRP and I love it.

[@purwantiallan5089]

GR Corolla Circuit Edition has 350bhp and special racing tyres on it.

[@TB86GRC]

​@@purwantiallan5089 Neither of those things are true for even the Morizo edition... The Morizo comes with the same 300hp but an extra pound of boost to make a few extra lb-ft of torque. Michelin PS4 vs Cup 2s if you consider Cup 2s a specialty racing tire.

[@darksunrise8777]

What a strange world, the 4 door hatch has 2 seats and the 2 door coupe has 4 seats haha. Can't go wrong with two great choices, but BRZ is the easy winner here IMO. I've owned mine for nearly 2 years and have fed it a constant diet of canyon runs and track days. Love it even more than the s2000 which I've also tracked and done canyon days with. That's huge praise in my book as a former Honda guy.

[@jecaulford4]

The Corolla GR has a backseat. Technically it seats 5 (sitting the the middle may be a tight fit tho) it's just this special edition doesn't have the rear seats

I own the GR Corolla and I’ve never heard anyone communicate so well what it’s like behind the wheel of it. I am amazed at how well he hit the nail in the head on everything about the GRC.

[@FujiboHeavy]

Great comparison! Huge props to Toyota for continuing to make such special performance (GR) vehicles for the standard joe like myself. I currently have a 22 GR86 6AT, and its my first rwd sports car, coming from fwd/awd cars and what a life changing experience to be able to learn this car. Its my primary car, and I have ran 2 track events with loads of fun, and learning. Looking forward to many more years of fun and experience with this car. Something about a Front engine, RWD, Lightweight coupe, near 50/50 weight dist. is very special. Personally I would like to see the new 8AT in the new GR Yaris make its way to the GR86/BRZ platform and maybe a little more power to replace both the 6AT and 6MT

[@KN-jw7ts]

The consensus on what makes these cars special is the fact they are offered as manuals. I’m confused as to why you would want an auto?

[@FujiboHeavy]

@@KN-jw7ts For me personally, I have major fear of mis-shifting. Just personal preference, and I dont mind less power and have the taller gearing. I know the 6AT version gets alot of hate, but its still a fun/usable rwd car compared to the AT Miata

[@SuchFinessse]

Everything you’ve said about the auto version is valid, and I’m sure it’s a lot of fun to drive. If you took your experience and amplified every aspect, that’s the manual version. Imo as a fellow owner (manual), the fear of mis-shifting wouldn’t keep me from recommending you learning manual in this car. All that said, no hate at all, I hope you continue to enjoy the car👌🏽

[@KN-jw7ts]

Hmm, That’s a major part of the enjoyment, getting good at it, so u don’t “mis-shift”. Can I ask how old you are?

[@FujiboHeavy]

@@SuchFinessse Definitely! I bought an 07 Honda Fit just to learn manual and I totally get it. Who knew a car with 100hp and 2700lbs could be so fun? I cant imagine a manual triple the power lol. I 100% agree with you, the manual is very much more amplified and you are 100% in control. Appreciate your input and best of luck on your car as well!

Should have been GR Corolla vs GR86. As much as the BRZ and GR86 are similar, they are miles apart.

@@tone3560 the consumer for this car is enthusiasts. There will always be non-enthusiasts that buy these types of cars (think of all the rich people with Ferraris that never do anything with them), but the general target market is enthusiasts, even for this channel. That’s why someone who is not an enthusiast won’t watch TGs videos nor understand anything that they are saying. I was merely saying that the suspension AND TUNING of the BRZ is much more softer than that of the GR86, which for a track test is not ideal in giving the twins a proper look. Your comment is like saying the difference between the scoville units in a ghost pepper and a Carolina reaper pepper don’t matter because they were both too hot for the average person. Yeah, the average person doesn’t need to know the difference in scoville units because they will never try something like that, but for someone who does like the increase in heat that difference is very different

As a north american I've only ever thought about it vice versa. All the cool cars you can get in europe but not in NA such as most good transit vans and even the new yaris + GR yaris.

@@GearHead_Mediahow how much time between the sessions? maybe the diff had time to cool down between them.

[@GearHead_Media]

@@robertulrich3964 sure, there were 2 hours between sessions, which is pretty standard for many time attack and racing groups. My point being it is an issue but not one that many people see in the real world because most people aren’t going to be racing these at a more strenuous rate than that. The biggest fallacy I see is people in particular indicating that all it takes is 1 - 3 laps. This may be the case for a small minority but in my experience driving on track and talking to other owners in the groups I’ve driven in, I’ve yet to hear anyone actually run into the issue. Again not to say it doesn’t exist, it’s just not THAT prominent. Same with the oil pressure issues in the GR86/BRZ does it exist? Yes. Have the vast majority of owners who track their 86/BRZ run into the consequences of this? Not from what I’ve seen. Sucks it’s an issue and it shouldn’t be one but you can certainly take the car out for a track day and the majority of the population won’t do more than that because of how cost prohibitive it is to race.

[@ragweedmakesmesneeze]

BRZ STI.....THE GR COROLLA IS TOPPED OUT....THE BRZ IS NORMAL...of course the corolla performs better

GR Corolla 🔥🔥🔥

🤮

Does the BRZ have Limited Slip Diff?

[@barsaf9989]

8:35 $31k is a lot of money for a small little coupe. It really should be mid 20's.

[@oemj7147]

No. A base Corolla or Civic are mid 20s. This "small coupe" is a bargain for a couple thousands more.

[@barsaf9989]

@@oemj7147 a base corolla is low 20s. I would still argue that 31 is too much for a smaller car with a manual trans, non turbo, and still cheap interior. Even a civic si is high 20s, and that a much bigger car.

[@harrybuhse8622]

Try drifting a corolla or civic and see what that extra money gets you.

[@barsaf9989]

@@harrybuhse8622 damn harry I just realized, a base wrx is cheaper! Lol

[@oemj7147]

@@barsaf9989 So a Porsche should cost less than an Accord because it's smaller? The Civic SI is a FWD econobox. A lot less car than an RWD sports car like the BRZ/GR86 or a Miata.

[@jimiverson3085]

OTOH, I would be interested in the GR Yaris and we can't get that in the US. And I believe you can get the GR86 in Europe, which means that not getting the BRZ is no hardship. Regrading your comment on weight on the GR, no performance car ever, ever needed more weight. If the suspension setup is off, fix that. DO NOT wish for a heavier car. If Colin Chapman were alive, he would shun you for that remark.

GR corolla is a terrible car if your comparing it at the pricepoint of what its at. Also terrible platform that japan shops arent really getting into. I was a gr corolla fan till i talked to some people who actually track with it

[@ludda42]

Great video

[@jmmch3358]

The only cars that were missed on the test: The Elantra N and Civic type R

[@yaboiyosef7640]

UK gets GR yaris tho

[@mercynatechowekesa]

If somebody died leaving Jeremy Clarkson on top gear woke up to see this bet they'd be disappointed 😂

[@thatomasala3818]

GR Corolla, is an epic piece of machine!

[@ahemgee9542]

We get the new CTR which has been widely acclaimed and testers say its much better all around than the Corolla GR, we do get the Toyota GR86 which you obviously know is exactly the same car as the Subaru. There are some cool cars from USA we don't get, how about you actually show those instead?

[@StormdriverOne]

Makes video about cars UK can't get. Specifically states its not a competition. Comments ignore both of those details and turn it into a competition about cars they can already get.

[@thehierophant1314]

The true injustice is we never got the Yaris, but toyota was good to us with the Gr Corolla

[@MTB_DREAM]

Why not compare it to the WRX?

[@deet4895]

You can most definitely get these cars into the UK, all one as to do is import them in from Japan, problem solved.

[@StakedWealth369]

More Jethro please

[@RushikeshWare]

Is it just me or the colour grading of the video is over done?

[@mikej1348]

The Yaris is based on a real rally car. Why complain? It’s lighter too.
