Actually now Manual is NOT the ONLY way to go… Now buyers can choose the DAT 8spd if that’s more fun for them… but you can shift the old way if that’s more fun for YOU! 😎
@@brodiwheeler7583 Buyers can choose the DAT if it's more *convenient* or *easier* for them. The manual is, without question, the more *fun* and preferred option. Personally, purchasing this car with an auto is a mistake.
Picked one up on the 3rd of last month and it's a TOTAL blast!! More fun than my prevoius car, a 392 Daytona. You nailed it on how much fun the 6 speed is!
@ well, I work for the Mac Haik Autogroup here in Houston. It’s a 2024 Premium and was a demo with 6k miles. MSRP was 45.9, got it for 36k, I think I lucked out. I was wanting to trade my Daytona for one in 23 but wasn’t about to pay 60k.
This must’ve been filmed earlier in the year. Joe is sweating and it’s definitely not hot enough right now to sweat outside in shorts and a T-shirt in Florida 😂
I have a 2023 GRC Circuit edition and love going around the rotary by RV parking where I live. The car is also fun to dive into corners in 2nd gear, then power out of the turn as the car slides and works to keep traction simultaneously. It's an angry little beast much different than most cars out there. Perfect for the Tail of the Dragon in Tennessee. The noise coming out of my engine and exhaust isn’t piped through the speakers, so I'm not sure what Raiti is talking about. The stock exhaust is fine and plenty loud enough for my liking. I've had the car for a little over a year with less than 5k miles on the clock. I might trade it in for an MR2 if Toyota decides to build a modern MR2, but it would be a tough decision. As a hatchback with all-wheel drive, the GRC is a handy little car. Only slightly longer than my old Boxster, the GRC has much more usable space. I'll probably keep my GRC for the next 10 years at least.
@@rayk7612 25’ model had noise isolation added. I guess that drowned out the engine too much so they now pump the sound out speakers like Honda. The 23’ and 24’ are straight engine/exhaust.
It's about 1pm in Japan, just finished eating lunch, watching Raiti's Rides. I've just checked its price on Toyota's website and I'm extremely surprised that it's more expensive than GR86.
I'm not sure how that's a surprise to you. The car is in its third year of production and, logically, should be more expensive than the 86 thanks to considerably more power and AWD.
@brodiwheeler7583 l bought my first daily driver auto car in 2012...after nearly 50 years of car ownership. Shifting gears doesn't give me any excitement anymore. New autos shift faster, usually better on gas, sticks get crap for resale and not a pain in traffic.
@@islanddon865 For me, I’ve rev matched (floating) hundreds of thousands of gears driving truck for 13+ yrs. Learned to drive in my Pop’s ‘86 Ranger with lift and bigger tires and stock clutch, first car I ever financed was a manual ‘96 Camaro, driven hundreds of clients cars that were manual for my car hauling transport and when I worked for a detailing shop in Cali in the late 90’s, and driven hundreds more when I used to sell cars for a living. Manuals are fun, and if there was a car that I loved that only came in manual (Integra Type-S), or had an optional CVT (WRX) it wouldn’t stop me from owning the manual… but if it has an optional Auto, these days… absolutely agree with you, I’m taking the auto. modern autos are excellent! All the “Enthusiast manual-only” gatekeepers can go wiggle their sticks all they want if it makes ‘em feel better about themselves, and they can hate if they want to while they’re roasting their clutch & I’m gapping them in an automatic. They like to think because they can go through all the motions and rev-match blah, blah, blah, that it somehow makes them superior to someone who chooses an auto, but really it just exposes their fragile-over-inflated ego. So you can shift gears the old way? WOW! Here’s a cookie 🍪. I’d much rather just pull a paddle or tap the lever up/down and I’m in the next gear instantly! Way quicker, and have my right hand free to do other things in the car if I want 😉 Technologically speaking, Autos are objectively the more advanced transmission these days, and manual lovers can call themselves a “purist” if they want, I just don’t GAF about all the trendy auto-shaming from those that enjoy rowing their own… I mean from a motorsports perspective, what top-level race cars are still using clutch pedals to go through all the gears these days? Are the pro drivers somehow “not a real enthusiast” because they didn’t go through the 3-4 step process to shift every gear? So lame, quit making a religion out of it. People forget that everyone enjoying motoring in the way they like, and all the different tastes and styles are what makes it so awesome! Enjoying what’s fun for yourself, and appreciating all the diversity, freedom and independence of others enjoying what they like, IS PRECISELY what makes the world-wide car community awesome! I’m all for # savethemanuals for those that want them. But, 2-more gears, faster shifting GR tuned Automatic just makes the GRC even better for my preference.

To me the car has kind of a weird chunky look around the rear wheels. Be nice to see that smoothed out a bit. Just my weird taste. Overall nice though ! Thanks Joe and Steven

@@murrynathan Nah. I don’t, you’re just regurgitating BS sensationalized propaganda. And I don’t even think your gullible enough to believe that they all blow up if driven over 85.

gr corolla is the modern day evo. Give the gr corolla some time it would be next to level with the evo. I also heard the people who worked on the evo also worked on the gr corolla
The manual might not be better than the automatic. It’s certainly more fun, engaging, and easier. A manual is easier to use because you don’t have to deal with park and the parking pawl and you control the shifts rather than the transmission shifting whenever it wants to. The GR Corolla is a great car.
The heavy metal gray has got to be the best GR color. Why don’t they all have the hood vents though?? Would love to have this car but I haven’t driven a manual since 2010 when I learned to drive on a Toyota echo!
I would like to know if the automatic can coast like the stick shift manual transmission? Which is one of the primary reasons why a manual transmission is so much better on fuel economy In the interest of my own integrity and being honest. I haven't watched this video yet.
Less drivetrain loss, complete control over RPMs, far simpler and cheaper maintenance and repair, I will always prefer manual transmissions over automatics.
I like this car but where I live the price is $53.000 msrp. That's way too much for this car. WRX comes in at $40.000 an Elantra N is $45.000 and the Golf R is $52.000.
I think the better question is: is that cornlog 1.6L three cylinder better than the M20A that is in the base Corolla? NO. No it is not. Toyota and everyone else with a 3 digit IQ knows that 4cylinders are better than three for performance, in every aspect. Why would you not build/tune/turbo the 2.0L 4 cylinder? I don't even want an I3 in a motorcycle let alone a car.
You’re not serious. It’s ironic you talk about IQ when your comment is displaying a lack of critical thinking, comprehending the ingenuity of this engine and why Toyota chose to go this path for their rally program. This engine was first and foremost developed for sanctioned competitive rallying and we are lucky to have it in a regular production car. The M20A has zero racing pedigree and was never a part of a full racing development program. If you ask me I think Toyota was showing off their engineering prowess by optimizing a power plant with one less cylinder and bravo to them. If the supercar maker Koenigsegg can develop a 1.7 million dollar 600 hp hyper car powered with only 3 cylinders your comment really has no leg to stand on. 3 cylinders presents opportunities to reduce rotational mass and frictional forces while reducing overall weight but it takes engineering ingenuity to optimize and tap into its full potential.
I had a 2015 STI and now have a GR Corolla Circuit Edition, the GRC is better in every way to the STI. The pitiful open diffed weak WRX isn't even in the same class.
How many? Do you mean the 0.0001% of total GR Corollas sold? Which by the way for the most part are due to driver error. If you don’t know how to drive a small displacement, highly boosted manual this car is not for you. Hint: do not lug the engine. It’s like giving a kid a keg of gun powder and a match
🤬Toyota! These GRs are blowing engines under normal driving conditions and Toyota is declining warranty engine replacements without exception- atleast Hyundai & Kia are replacing their engines under warranty!
stop with this misinformation only about 2 of them it happened due to poor driving hence the reason toyota declined warranty it wasn’t due to going over 85mph
If we’re humans and we like updating things why don’t people understand that paddle shifting is essentially manual shifting but it’s at our fingertips now so why go with the old way the slow way of doing things?! Manual is obsolete now at this point imo.

I've driven a manual in the city for longer than you've been alive. It's no big deal.

If we’re humans and we like updating things why don’t people understand that paddle shifting is essentially manual shifting but it’s at our fingertips now so why go with the old way the slow way of doing things?! Manual is obsolete now at this point imo.

Low IQ comment.
My appeal to every Muslim, my brother or sister, the owner of the channel, I know that it is not my right to comment on your channel, but God is my witness that our circumstances are harsh and forced me to do this. Please forgive me. My brother, there is still a brotherhood of faith. I asked you for a bag of flour. My brother, we women cannot go out among men. There is still a woman with you. My brother, God has honored you. You are men. We are women. We cannot go out or work like you. My brother, where is the brotherhood of faith in your hearts? We are women. There is no brotherhood, no mercy, no compassion, no humanity. And give good tidings to the patient. It is the greatest hope while waiting for what we want. '''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' How many times I called and talked and tried hard, but no one responded. Oh man, we are with you. My mother ordered us food from the restaurant. Moreand today. My mother left. Crying. She said, Why are you crying, my mother? She said, My daughter, I ask. God, that I may be honored by death. She said, Why, my mother. She cursed us. She said, "My daughter, today the restaurant owner insulted me. I said, 'Why?' I said, 'How can I be better than people?' I ask God, my daughter. May God gather me. With death alone, a gathering that is better than this humiliation and this humiliation. It is true. I am saying this. It diminishes my value and respect. But, man. I swear to God that I did not say this. I kiss your boots. I am so hungry that my conscience no longer allows me to let you go and ask us for food. I kiss your boots, man, and I ask you by God Almighty and in the Book of God, man, I kiss your boots, man. He has caused us harm, my brother, so that we can buy a kilo of flour and pay the rent. My brother, have mercy on us. He who is in the show will have mercy on you, He who is in the sky. My brother, this is my WhatsApp number: 00967779509554. Whoever can help us,message me on WhatsApp. We will send him the full name. He will transfer us as much as he can. May Allah reward you. Allah knows that my family and I, our house rent is 15 thousand Yemeni riyals per month, and now we owe 45 thousand for 3 months. The owner of the house is one of those people who do not have mercy. By Allah, my brother, he comes every day and humiliates us and talks about us and wants to throw us out of the house and into the street because we were unable to pay him the rent. We will have until the end of the week, and if we pay him, he will swear by Allah that he will throw us out into the street without mercy. See my situation for yourselves. I ask you by Allah, the Living, the Eternal, to help me. By Allah, the Almighty, even at night we cannot sleep from fear. We do not have mattresses or blankets to warm ourselves from the cold. Everything is flooded from the rain, and we have no one but Allah and then you. My brothers, I kiss your boots, don’t turn me awayempty-handed. Help us with whatever you can. Is it acceptable to you that we live in this place? We are girls and we have no one. Our father died in a car accident. Consider us your daughters and your honor, and help me with whatever you can. May God reward you with good =>[[}>] ^][/&;;&;&&;•̥·-•.,¸-•.,¸°·̮ •̥·°,.•¯,.•¯,;;;.≪∫⌈,.≪∫⌈,.≪∫⌈,.≪∫⌈,.≪∫⌈,.------------------------------،-------،-........
