@@Supcharged I know what you’re saying but the previous Type R was £35k and it’s easy to hit £50k with the new one. Sad it’s no longer built in the UK. Engine in America, transmission in Suzuka and then all put together in another plant. The Yaris is also 4 wheel drive which explains some of its cost.

A great car no doubt fun as hell to drive, I understand the compliance's they have to meet under the regs over in Europe and the UK and the overall powertrain, chassis rigidity and interior revisions all make for a better new vehicle, the price increase is a full 1/3 more which just priced itself out of the market fro new young customers who want a hot hatch AWD can no longer look at this , if you saw the prices of the GR Corolla sister car here in Canada and the US you'd spit your coffee out and say what the heck is going on, I was considering one here in Canada and was quoted the MSRP and was called by the dealer when it arrived and went to see it, asked what happened , it was $20k more than quoted from the same person, he said no, i pulled out his card with his signature on it, he said Toyota made the price increase, so i went and called a Toyota dealer in Vancouver and was the same franchise owner and they told me they dealer owner marked it up $20k and they would sell it to be for MSRP if i flew to Vancouver to but it from them and then i told him it was his Winnipeg Store and i quickly took a photos of the business card of the salesman and text it to him and he'd call back to verify it and he did call back to my surprise and i was ready to book a flight and go buy the car from them and suddenly they would no longer sell me the car under any circumstance even if i payed the gross mark up price, they called it back handed, i did 10 years in the business and we simply new as customers cross shopping one dealer to the next, so in the end after i spoke to the controller of the dealership he agreed it was handled very badly especially from me having 10 yrs in the industry and agreed to sell it for only $10k over MSRP, I passed and walked out refusing to buy from greedy bastards 💩

Can someone please explain to me why the engineers decided to stiffen the front spring rates, roll bar and shocks on a car that is prone to understeer? The one thing the old car seemed to lack was an element of oversteering fun. It was almost impossible to bring the back out. All seems counterintuitive to me, other than a degree of increased turn in sharpness (which I didn't think was a problem on the old thing). What am I missing?

The only thing I can think is that the little bit of extra power and torque might help to unstick all four wheels, which is what you might want for drifting with this 4wd set-up. Perhaps then the little bit of extra response from the front axle is helpful, but I'm clutching at straws really 🤷‍♂

The GR Yaris is my favorite hot hatch because it is more of a sports car than an actual, practical Hot Hatch But this Gen 2 has two MASSIVE downfalls: 1) The price, this is the deal breaker. Just like when the Type R went from $34k to $47k. 💀 And 2) This is a minor one, the wall of the interior doesn't look very pleasant, as long as it works it's fine but I think there might be a reason why the refreshed GR Corolla doesn't have the wall in the interior (Although, it also doesn't have the thrid brake light moved away from the spoiler)

Can confirm , i had a MK1 GR Yaris i got for $39500 (in $AUD) drive away Amazing car for the money , shines on the skidpan and twisty roads. $ for $ nothing else in that category comes close for that price range. Sold it an upgraded to a FL5 Type R , definitely a huge step up , Faster and much better cornering capability (much wider tyres + LSD + electronic dampers) it shines on higher speed curves , perfect on long drives due to the longer wheelbase and better return on fuel economy (got 10L/100km on FL5 and 11.5L/100 on GRY , now running 18s so i am getting 9.2L/100km/h). My only regret is it consumes tyres and brake-pads a lot more then the GR Yaris because its heavier but overall enjoyment factor is better. GR Yaris is a special car but its not worth that kind of money , you would be better off even getting a GR Corolla at that point if its available to you (same engine/drivetrain and more practical) Absolute MUST upgrade for the GR Yaris/Corolla is the Eventuri Intake (+20-25nm of torque and a little extra HP). As for the FL5 it only needs an anti-lift kit to perfect the front end whilst cornering , powerflex have started to make kits for the rear-front arm , when stock the front-end feels a little light diving in corners at high speed (even in R mode) but the rear is always planted. This should fix it by giving it more caster - sitting it a little lower and also allowing for more neg camber gain. Final Word - If any of you reading this has the ability to test-drive any of the cars above , then add a MK3 Ford Focus LE to your list (you might be pleasantly surprised) We are in the final age of performance ICE cars guys , enjoy it while it lasts.

I watched it on captions for half way through then got bored with watching (not listening) to an old bloke complain it’s not perky enough. I bet he drives sensibly with his 2.4 kids 99% of the time and bemoans the fact he can’t hammer his Vauxhall Astra GTE like he used to be able to….

After 5 years would be interesting to see what the residuals are on each of these. I suspect one will be much higher than the other. All that said, it’s moot as the two cars address two totally different markets. One is a highly capable performance saloon and the other is a hand built low volume rally homologation special.

Please Toyota sack the people responsible for that 80's dashboard... re the price: no news here - even without considering the bombastic interest rates this industry has lost completely the plot save Dacia... re the people who still buy brand new cars I would like very much to know how they do it and what makes them accept this much shearing ...

so thats a big no from me ! I will keep my white Mk1 thanks ! That dashboard/instrument cluster is like the old 80s Atari childs toy thing, the front bumper treatment just doesnt look 'proper' like the mk1 does. I dont know what all the gripes were about the old info screen height on the mk1, I'm 5'10 and it doesnt obstruct the view, it remains below the wipers !! and that grey !! how BLAND !! just blend in with all the rest of the sheep in their boring grey and black and silver cars that all you see on todays roads ! Oh that auto slush box, well that just sends the car to sleep !! what a disappointment, and at £45000 its a complete NO compaired to the MK1 being a no-brainer !

I seriously think that the channel is a waste of time especially for a car that is not being made available for people to actually purchase like normal goods , It's an absolutely ludicrous world regards to cars and there availability let alone the complete unreasonable prices - The car manufacturers are literally trying to have consumers pants down , and if everyone stands together and stops paying the exuberant prices then the manufacturers will have no choice but to drop the prices

The problem is that Toyota will not let just anyone purchase the car even if you have the money there , That's the Joke so pretty pointless even reviewing cars that you won't be able to buy, And having a Ballot is also a joke , Never had this trouble in the 80,s & 90,s you could just buy what you wanted from real car dealers that cared
