    ***Boost Pressure Correction*** - incorrect turbo boost pressure information was stated in the video. We were emailed nearly finalized Press Materials from Toyota Corporation before this press launch stating maximum turbo boost pressures of 40 and 41, respectively. We questioned the numbers, but could only refer to the documentation we received. A finalized Spec Sheet posted by Toyota has revealed revised max pressure numbers to be 25.2 PSI (Core Grade & Circuit Edition) and 26.3 PSI (MORIZO Edition). We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.

      LOL @ Certified master builders. I know it's being built in the LFA factory but don't forget, the LFA has stopped production. This is still a high volume model not a 100 volume car. They made some changes in the assembly and some additional weld points. I refuse to believe this is some kind of hand assembled unicorn.

It completely embarrassed everything over car there that day, even racecars. The 30/70 was definitely my preference, even in the greasy conditions because the car wanted to rotate soon on corner exit but 50/50 was impressively effective. Great cars!

    The main problem with this car atleast for us NZers is that it’s expected to launch between 90-100k NZD. For that money, you can get 2017+ M3, Giulia quadrifoglio, Alfa 4C, focus RS, 1990s Honda NSX. For me personally, is special but not as special as these cars. I’d just buy an old NSX, or Alfa 4C which have such a different driving experience that you can’t get anywhere else and those cars will most likely retain higher resale value if taken care of than this.

    I think Toyota's idea is that most people will buy the Core and spec it up, The Circuit Edition is for the people who want a better track car or a collectible car, and The Morizo Edition is for the best track performance but mostly a collectible item, not really something for the masses 🤔 And at that price? If you find a Core at close to MSRP it's straight up the best option for a Hot Hatch (At least until the (FL5) Type R comes then we'll see but no matter what this will always be one of the greatest Hot Hatches of our era ❤️🔥)

      Quite possibly. We’re sure someone will independently verify the numbers, and perform various tests. 40 is a rather high number!
      On the other hand, Toyota did not caveat their spec sheet by separately stating manifold pressure, which is either really impressive or slightly concerning! We’re still not sure! Either way, the car makes 300HP with just 3 cylinders? Wow. And it has a warranty.
