From the MT article above:
Sidestepping (a.k.a. dropping) the clutch with the engine revved to its 7,000-rpm redline will cause the three-cylinder to bog. But if you simply lift your foot quickly off the clutch pedal, the GR Corolla rockets away smoothly with just a slight squeal of slip from its Michelin Pilot Sport 4 tires.
I think I read that the 2023 Prius has large wheels but skinny tires. Some will undoubtedly put a set of Prius wheels on a GR and have a lot of silly fun. It might even help the GR's efficiency.

For the price of a Morizo
Funny, the timing of it just before the collapse of Carvana. Will send ripple effect on hopefully both new and used cars.

I can't wait to get my GR Corolla. Hopefully sooner than later. It will be a nice addition to my 2009 Corolla S Turbo 5MT, 2017 Corolla iM 6MT, 89 Supercharged MR2 5MT, and 2006 Scion xB 5MT. 😍

Not surprising. The car market has taken and pretty big hit. Carvana BK, Tesla slashed prices, supply not an issue etc etc. I know I am on a Toyota forum but it is still a Corolla and when you want to try and charge $60K with an ADM there is A LOT of competition at that price. this was just another flipper trying to make a buck and it backfired for social media clicks and likes. That is what all these people do it for right? To be liked and get subscribers.

Can't wait to see people bitching and moaning how their engine blew, on the other forum :rolleyes:
So true, but wouldn't be a "tuner" if something didn't blow LOL

With proper tuning the motor has been shown to handle a lot more power and 300whp should be had with no problems if the tuning is right.

It's said to be a 'Core', but has red GR brake calipers.
If the Core has the Performance Package it comes with front and rear LSDs and red painted calipers with the GR logo. Most everyone wants this package at a minimum.

I got to see my first one in person today. It was bought by an employee but it was cool to see it and start it! I didn't get to drive it but it was sweet.
