The GRMN is such a nice car. Masa is a lucky guy and totally deserves it. That body kit is the GR aero package for the GR Yaris. So you can buy any GR Yaris (yes including the 1.5L CVT RS) spec'd with it. That entire kit costs about 352,000yen plus about 20,000+yen for installation. Its 1/3rd the price of that dry carbon wing :) Heck...even the GR cold air intake pipe (about 5 inches of plastic) is 33,000yen :/ The GRMN engine has more torque (390Nm vs stock 370Nm). The first phase of the UPGRADE Selection and Personalization was offered to GR Yaris owners (got it done my GR Yaris). It included a software upgrade that bumped the torque up to 390Nm (same as GRMN) and personalized the throttle, steering and torque split. The Personalization was done in two ways...you could either go to a track day where they monitor your driving and dial in the car or select preset settings from GR Garage. What Masa described is some of the next phase of the program (which GR garages offer in a pseudo way already)

The video didn’t mention but GRMN also has different final drive and gear ratios. I guess you can build your own replica but Toyota doesn’t sell the carbon roof and recaro passenger seat (only driver seat is currently for sale). And the extra spot welds will be costly to do. GRMN owners are very lucky

It was an American named Jim Moran who helped Toyoda boost sales of his small Japanese vehicles. Toyoda wanted to meet this man in north America that was generating so much sales and making his vehicles so popular. After meeting Mr. Jim Moran Toyoda sales sky rocketed and within 2 years Jim Moran was the one who gave Mr.Toyoda the idea for a more luxurious line of vehicles and so was born the Lexus line. To know it was an American hard working man who helped make Toyota what it is today and not be able to sell this vehicle in the United States and every other Toyota sold in the United States is made different feels unfair. I worked for JM Lexus in Margate Fl and knew Jim Moran he was such an accomplished gentleman may he rest in peace.

Coming from the world of 2 wheels...it's very hard to completely balance a triple. Triples make great low end torque but top end usually loses to an inline 4. Also, there is also the problems of longevity, inline 4 tend to last longer with higher miles.

Factory seam spot welding. Cant you buy a Mexican car, and import into the states? Or is it set to the same laws for importation of a non North American supplied car? 😢 Sorry, about the question Chen-San, l know that you collect Hot Wheels, and do you collect or have you seen the POP RACE 1/64th scale die casts. I've just gotten the KPC10 DRIFT V8 Conversion, in a bitchin' met orange. I've also got some of their wagons, I'm a 'long roof' fan, as l grew up in the UK with ford estates with a very rare black Cortina Mk1 estate. Then my late father had a mk3 red estate GL, when he sold it, to an old friend who customised the headlights to square ones, (it looked like crap) Resprayed it a Ford Surf blue, sprayed in his own garage. He was a good sprayer, and worked in the LAND ROVER paint shop rectification area with my father. Who personally knew the Spen king and David Bache, and the upper upper managers, as he was chief safety officer for the 'infamous night shift'. The usual THE Sun, bs stories, if you ever want to know what really went on, drop me an email or Instagram via SPEEDTRIPLEUK. I really enjoy you bus an holidays to Japan and I would love to see a Honda City Turbo ll with motocompo in hatch and convertible. One in white the other in YELLOW!!!!!! Pearl paint, a set of alloys as fitted to the Vipercinno owned by the owner of Ex Barrel Brothers on both. Shimata, I've waffled on and bored you to death, l bet Chen-San.. Happy new year to you and your family and friends and I hope this year we don't lose anyone in January. But that Yaris, could easily set up a mini collection of the rarer types for someone who has the dollars US & Oz and NZ, yen, English Pound sterling, etc.

To be legally imported into the US permanently generally a vehicle must meet all FMVSS (Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards) and EPA standards. If they don't meet those standards, there are other legal methods, but most of the legal ways are so expensive and complicated, they aren't done. At 25 years old a vehicle is FMVSS exempt, and at 21 a vehicle is EPA exempt.

I would smoke any Yaris, any place any time, I basically build a rally car for the road. Draggy messured 0-100 2.84, 100-200 6.8 to 6.9. You also know how good it sounds to if you know what a audi 5 banger sounds like. My car is better looking to, the Yaris just looks like it got in a chain collission and was squashed between 2 cars, it's not reliable, many blown up on the track, it's a boy's car like the old type r was (new one looks actualy pretty nice, grown up). One thing the yaris has on me is weight yeah, it's the reason I recently bought a 718 cayman and am modding it as we speak to go on track.
