The Toyota dealership near me had the gall to ask $52,000 for a GR Corolla while it sat next to a $58,000 GR Supra.

The car no regular person will ever get to own

Its hard to understate the hubris of dealers selling these, nearly $70,000 out the door. They even have the gall to put markup on the 86 when the Subaru dealerships basically never do it.

"I'm Toyota and I'm of my meds again-" Fucking gold line there.

Ya know, back in my heyday, the Ford Focus RS was supposed to be the bastion of affordable attainable enthusiast hot hatches. The hype was there, it was all prepped for launch and market domination…. And then the dealers stepped in..

That romance repo/ heartbreak haulers bit was just as good as the local radio DJ bit in the Lexus video, well played 😂

"I tint my plate cover to bamboozle the local constabulary" Best RCR ever.

Can't wait to buy one of these in 20 years for triple the dealer price.

The silence after "it sounds so good"...

The repo segment was one of the funniest things you all have ever done

not even five minutes in and you are already killing it with the references Mr Regular

The greedy dealers have ruined it for us.

The new BRZ/GR86's are plenty practical, just for two people. I've had two mountain bikes on a tow hook mounted carrier, a four person tent on the roof and a weeks worth of food, water and clothes packed into my '22 for camping and it's been rock solid. It wasn't some off road adventure, but I'd like to see a bone stock Corolla try off-roading and get better results. No roof panel warping under load, the bike carrier didn't feel janky. 28mpg even with all the crap on it. It's the perfect daily driver for apartment dwelling millennials that have no hope of affording a house before 45..

RCR is the gift that keeps on giving. Something about the already quality content PLUS the new commercial segments. It’s *chef’s kiss*

Moooom, RCR is getting weird again (and I love it).

The Dune references, the repo bit, Greg, and a great review to boot. Thank you guys!

this is one of my favorite new cars. im glad that a few companies are still pushing for a proper hot hatch. this car looks excellent, makes good noises, and goes like hell. just another damn good toyota.

The romance repo had me weezing. Great job Nick

Toyota:"Here's a slightly fun new car" Mr Regular's 'THE VOICE': "IT'S TIME FOR ME TO CREAM"

At first I wasn't that hooked, but then I saw it was a hatch like, _"What that _*_back_*_ do tho'?_ That's a cool little ride! If this was sold at 35 or less people would be piling out of the door with them. A Modern Hot hatchback!

Absolutely love the way you weave philosophy to hilarious bits and back to car reviews all in twenty minutes, brilliant video

it's so frustrating. i built one on the website and it came out to $37k, looked at actual dealer prices and not a single one below $50k

The romance Repo bit was in perfect harmony with this morning's peak caffeine high, was laughing my ass off so hard

I saw signs of Toyota starting to lose their minds when they came out with a TRD Camry which makes about as much sense as a Corvette with a trailer hitch but I like this GR Corolla. It reminds of our old 1985 Celica GTS hatchback that had 4 cylinders and 5 speeds and those pop up headlights.

Thank you for repeating what me and the only other guy in my corolla GR marketing focus group of car enthusiasts years ago. It doesn’t matter if it’s a 3 cylinder or less than 2liters of displacement, if it performs, if it is fast, it’s good! Everyone else in my Focus group was too, hung up on it not being a V-8 or V6 or having more than 3.8 L of displacement for whatever reason they didn’t care that it could be fast they just wanted to make sure it suited their ego on paper.

Roman's latest commercials are top notch!

Y'know I've only taken on Philosophy class (Ethics), and the most use I've gotten out of it is being able to follow what Mr. Regular is saying when he starts going off.

Someone needs to help get Mr.Regular to review an LFA. Imagine the underwear situation.

"it's 309 when you wanted 476" is such a local nod, I love it LMAO. That being said I have a 2011 Subaru Outback 3.6R - I'm getting some work done to it but by mid-end summer it may be ready for a shooting if its a regular enough car for you.

"Leto Atreides the second reaching for the golden path." Freaking awesome line.

Most of the fun in my NB MX-5 happens above 4900 rpm. Also huge props for the DUNE reference! Also love that Toyota is making real cars again.

I'm only here for the philosophical musings about a motor vehicle. I'm sure the car is fine. Edit: please never stop the feux-local adverts, Ronan!

Honestly, I love the look. Slightly aggressive, mostly unassuming, with a little bit of emphasis on the fenders. It’s a sleeper. Perfect.

The childish grin you had in the wing mirror beeping Greg was adorable, bro. Also you been getting in shape, looking good my man. Bro out here bein submissive and breedable.

Didn't expect a Children of Dune reference in a car review, but I welcome it.

Great car and reminds me when car manufacturers weren't afraid to roll the dice in the American market.

As a member of the proletariat, I'm bummed this is out of reach. It's a far cry from the golden days of cheapo econo S-box with a sporty model that basically everyone can get but nobody wants. Now, everyone wants it, but nobody can get it.

What I've noticed about Toyota is they provide a GREAT value if you buy the boring base or mid-level trim. Mom bought one of the first 2019 Rav4's to hit the street in late 2018(new body style that year). Paid $30,000 out the door with taxes and everything for an XLE which had heated cloth seats, sunroof, power hatch and a few other options. I was there to help her shop and the upper trim levels fully decked out were $6000 more, for what, leather seats and AWD??? Not to mention the more expensive hybrid Rav4 and plug in variant which cost even more. This Corolla GR plays to the same folly because of stupid dealer markups and Toyota not flooding the market with them. In theory you really do get A LOT more for the extra $13,000 in "MSRP", comparing a base Corolla to the GR version. Its like going from a base Impreza to a WRX STI.

What a cool car! Better get shopping for one at a reasonable price :)

I wish this would force mitsubishi to slap a turbo on the mirage.

Guys, masterful work once again! Nietzschian discourse and Romance Repo. Truly superb bits and superb writing. Thank you!!

Glad to see toyota having their engineers make fun cars again. I personally have a 1997 Celica liftback manual that I find fun to drive and don’t plan on getting rid of anytime soon. When Toyota puts effort into it, they make awesome cars

One day I started following Greg too. Greg started driving like a crazy person - going thru red lights and traffic stops. Then Greg pulled up to a gas station and told some people - his face white with terror - "That guy is following me. Call the police" - and took off. Turned out it was not Greg.

Great video as always. Youre the only person I know of that can tie in a "Gettysburg" quote into a corolla review (great movie btw).....very appropriately I might add. Keep up the good work brother!

I’ve came for a GR Corolla review but got a Nietzsche lecture instead. I love it !

I love the "this is what this kid in middle school looked like, this is him now" energy the GR corolla gives It's the "lol those are looser mom cars" turned into a racing beast

Holy s*** bro I’m literally reading Children of Dune and you came out swinging with the obscurest of references you literary snob I love you. 😂

3:51 Agreed, it as a Corolla could be the 86 while the FRS/GR86 should have been a Celica

The most unaffordable Corolla ever

Just got my 24, loved your video for this car, I completely love it and it's perfect for the dogs when I flip the seats down

the slight philosophical lecture in the guise of a gr corolla review.

For those who can't afford a Corolla GR, look into a JDM Only Toyota Caldina GT. Think AWD Toyota Matrix with a 3S-GTE.

Mr. Regular knows MF DOOM. Automatic cool points for that 👍🏿

you know what i love of this thing? the rims aren't stupid big with stupid thin tyres just because. It's like, yup, we're doing it but we're being serious about this thing being a Corolla.

dude you're deep I can't even see you anymore haha. Never expected this level of philosophizing in car reviews. I love it

There’s still time for a slightly used Fiesta ST for $15k.

I think you should FACTOR in that the hess truck toy truck from hess is totally worth reviewing hess truck one of the trucks is FLATBED TRUCKS WITH HOT RODS

Roman's part was genius! Easily one of your best videos

I tried for a year to put money down at two different local dealerships to get one of these. Neither would let me put money down. "We dont know when we are getting one" or "the service managers best friend has money down on the only one we are getting this year" Got sick of the run around and went and got a 5.0 instead. not disappointed in my purchase..

The only downsides of this car are gonna be availability and dealer markups.

the repo segment is top tier

I have an XSE hatch currently. The race seats are not the problem for back seat passengers. It's small to begin with

A hot Toyota, killer Roman content and deep-ass philosophy? What an episode 🙏

That idea that should be the AE86 successor is so true and revealing. Corolla, hatchback, Sporting are better suited than RWD (though not solid axle) and two-door.

One of the few sports cars you can buy new these days that has both a manual transmission and all-wheel-drive and also a turbocharged engine. Very few of those, these days.

I had Factor and it was pretty good! The food was fresh and you can tell they just cooked it before shipping. For a single person or a household of two, it’s a very economical option.

I apolgize for the delay, I was out of the office yesterday! This vehicle MSRP is at $45,485! Plus your Market Adjustment, taxes, tags and fees! I do like to be as transparent with my customers as possible, so I did want to let you know that there is a $7,500 Market Adjustment on this vehicle currently. -Actual dealer

Nice, love these Corollas

Mr Regular has to be one of the smartest content creators on KZfaq. RCR has not reached a million subs yet solely because of the genius writing and wit that both Mr Regular and Roman bring. They do not pander to the mouth breathers.

I wish the screens in these new cars were retractable. They always seem like an afterthought slapped onto the dash and something that will come loose and fall off at some point from an aggressive button pushing episode.

2023 Toyota GR Corolla: for when you want a gr yaris but mid and very slightly more practical

Pretty decent looking Corolla, I haven't seen one in real life yet.

I got whiplash coming back to this channel. I forgot what to expect

YOU GOT A FACTOR SPONSORSHIP?????? now im sold

Absolutely Totally blown away by the Shabbos Goy reference, it makes up for all the weird voices you do on the other videos. You used it correctly, the analogy was executed brilliantly. Observant Jew here, totally in awe.

I want one, but I don't want to give up the roominess of my Camry. I guess the Camry V6 is my only option.

When we look back at the history of the early 21st century enthusiast car, we will see with clarity that it was the dealership that killed them. They don't sell because people can't buy them when the middle man feels his wallet's not full enough. So manufacurers rarely make them anymore. I'm so glad Toyota is at least trying. Thank you, Morizo.

Thx for offering this in manual only. And a hand break. Auto manufacturers, we want more of these

Excuse me, do I hear a high pitched V10 in the background?

45k? Pass...

tbh I agree, I like this and the Yaris GR more than the (new) 86 and Supra GR. I'd have loved a straight 4 yes (hell even a straight 5 lol), but at least the 1.6T inline 3 seems to be good enough for hitting the apex while going to the 9-5 or the groseries.

The despicable unobtainium factor makes the disgust factor increase. Die hard fanboys might still love it but most will write it off due to the downstream effects of the unobtainium factor.

a dune reference nice

Toyota, the only company who can name a package after a Flintstones character (Gazoo Racing) and make it desirable

I got the chance to drive a morizo at the toyota dealership I work at and it changed my perspective on imports, i am a die hard American big V8 muscle guy and the gr corolla impressed me of how well a turbo 3 cylinder can put down power and feels way more refined than most modern muscle cars feel, The AWD system is awesome you can dump it and the tires wont even chirp, the handling is amazing and the shifter which I originally thought would be too long of a throw felt perfect when banging thru gears. Might have to order one when we finally start gettin some cores in (and prices go down smh 😭)

The Men smashing Bud Light Cans absolutely matter.. The brewing giant on Thursday reported that its U.S. revenue in April-to-June quarter fell 10.5% from a year ago, attributing the decline "primarily due to the volume decline of Bud Light." It has lost its place as America's best-selling beer after more than two decades, slipping into second place in June behind Mexican lager Modelo Especial, which is also owned by the Belgium-based ABInBev. The company faced backlash after sending a commemorative Bud Light can to Mulvaney, who posted it to her millions of social media followers.

Subaru stopped making the STI....so Toyota stepped in to fill the gap. And boy did they. If Mr.T can get their dealers to not mark it up so high, then this will be the most popular car of this decade.

Love seeing the Mazda interiors in the new Toyotas.

This video is like finding a secret doorway to a Spencer’s Gifts in your local public library and the public library is only accessible by climbing down into a storm drain in the parking lot of your local Toyota dealership.

I would have totally broke my bank account to get one of these back when I was obsessed with finding an ST-205. The ST-205 is better than this thing, but whatever, sometimes a compromise is better than what you want. I'll set myself a reminder to buy one of these used in 10 years.

RCR at it’s best!

Hmmm. Looks like I need a GR bumper for my Toyota CHR

great car. Good luck buying one at anything close to MSRP though. I wanted to buy one this past summer. I had cash in hand, no financing needed. There were waitlists requiring nonrefundable down payments and absolutely insane markups. Got a used STI instead and had enough money left over for some nice upgrades and the inevitable EJ woes. As you said, dealers gonna deal. But I'm not going to deal with them.

This is the scooter of cars. It stopped raving in 2005 and came back as king today.

how toyota managed to still get low 20s MPG out of 3 cylinders is an impressive engineering feat...

So was it Greg or what?

A new video makes my hungover work day better. Thank you. You're the best.

Was with a buddy looking to buy one of these. Dealer didn’t want to give a price. Finally did. None to test drive by the way. 65k. Salesman said that he could put in an offer for my friend, “kind of like, I’m your lawyer”. We went down the road and he bought a 2023 WRX and loves it.

too bad average people cant afford 40k cars
