I lied! The 2023 GR Corolla Morizo is the best car Toyota makes!

  • While at ‪@UtahMotorsportsCampus‬ to drive the Circuit Edition version of the 2023 ‪@TOYOTAGAZOORacingJPchannel‬ Corolla, MotoMan also drove the limited to 200 Morizo edition of the 2023 ‪@toyotausa‬ GR Corolla. On paper, there are a number of very small changes between the GR Corolla Circuit Edition and ‪@TOYOTAglobal‬ GR Corolla Morizo, but once out on the track, those all add up to a more than expected rubber meets the road delta between the two!

    I agree with you on the color, Toyota should have a unique color for the Morizo. They should come out with a better color than just different shades of Gray and White. A car like the Morizo should have a special color.

    Core without the differentials would be very good to know how it handles against the Circuit.
    Less locking of wheels is it smoother (not faster) on curves.
    Can you feather the throttle to make body movement changes?
    How is the body roll?
    Do the tires chirp or squeal, more or less, without LSD's? Is there less tire wear ?
    It there torque steer when you smash the throttle or balanced?
    Heck, Does it weight less? MPG?
    As a daily driver but track and AutoX on weekends, is it good?
    All valid questions and we await your great review!

    Would be interesting to see what motoman thinks of the GR Yaris, if he ever got a chance to drive one. Lets face it, creating a road going rally homologation spec car is such a rare event in motoring. Last one before the Yaris was what 20 years ago with the Subaru WRX.
    As great as the GR Corolla and its limited edition variant is, it isnt a rally homologation spec GR Yaris.

    The GR Corolla is already a highly sought after limited edition hot hatch. The Morizo is on another level performance-wise, and collectability! With how few there will be, I imagine there will be owners who will keep it stored away as a garage queen and not see a second in its natural habitat, on a track. And that's a damn shame.
    BTW, I have a deposit down for a Core Edition in Supersonic Red w/ Perf & Tech pkgs!!! Can't wait!!! A performance tune and stickier tires, and the Core Edition is on par with a Morizo, for sure.

    10:16 I absolutely agree. Why white and grey? Ill tell you why. The boys at Toyota think its cool. And they are right. Its fine. BUT This is a special car. Id give it two new wild colors to choose from each model year ditching the previous two while keeping white and grey all through production. Add to that id do a color matching interior option which would do color matched seat belts and interior trim bits. All simple things to do. They have the paint facilities in mass at Motomachi. There is absolutely no reason for them not to be capable of this.

    Now that is a proper hot hatch. I wish Toyota was making more than 200 of these. That’s an obscenely low number for a Corolla. Even Porsche would produce more bespoke special edition 911’s than this. This feels like a supply chain issue that’s being marketed as a limited production run vehicle to generate high demand and inflated prices. It’s going to work obviously as even I would gladly pay MSRP for this car tomorrow if I could get an allocation. Sadly, I know I won’t at least for 2023. Hopefully 2024 and beyond, the Morizo edition is either brought back, or this edition becomes the new Circuit Edition.

    Since 95% will have it parked-up for bragging rights and/or as an investment...It's a complete waste of time. Given, GR86 is flawed (which was priced right), Toyota's enthusiast need deep pockets (especially if all you have is Canadian monopoly money).

    Yes this is all great if you know how to drive, which 99.999% of people don't. I can tear apart the new Corolla GR in 30 seconds. It is an absolute waste of a platform. It should have been a 2 door hatch, should have had a 300hp+ 4 cylinder, and most importantly the car should have introduced something new to the market (ie. oem anti-lag / wasted spark ability or a suspension system that can alter height by 6-8 inches with the push of a button). And that's just me taking 2 seconds to spit ball, come on Toyota, it's 2023 and you are still trying to compete with Ford who beats you to the punch every single time.
