As a GR Yaris owner, I think the car really comes into its own with a few basic mods. Exhaust, seat lowering, intake and a rear wing really makes it look, sound and drive fantastic. First and most important mod is the exhaust imo. Just get a milltek system, they sound great, really easy to mount, and much cheaper than this.

Have a HKS Legamax exhaust and the Eventuri on mine. Both intake and exhaust are essential mods in my opinion. Not fussed on lowering the suspension as love the way I can take speed humps without gritting my teeth worrying about the front lip and weirdly despite being 6’2” the driving position never bothered me but would love some Recaro CS retrimmed one day for purely aesthetic reasons. Imran if you’re reading these comments, the Eventuri is an amazingly designed intake and very happy with mine, so well done to all involved 👏🏻

Sounds like the second gen GR Yaris solves a bunch of these issues, and is more robust for mods, surely the smart (if rather expensive!) way to go ;-)

I own a 2021 GRY and it has been a great fun journey, load of mods, always put a smile on your face. The facelift version performance indeed more subtle, Toyota do listen to customer feedback, 300hps with heaps of upgrades, etc. But I would not buy a MK2, for example if you own a tuned Evo6, you may not upgrade to Evo7,8,9

I have no idea about how much the GRY second gen with be. But one thing I can not unsee is the dashboard on it- it looks like Toyota ripped it straight out of a 1993 DAF truck, you'l be stuck looking at that all the time. I'd stick with the original GRY and do some tasteful mods.

Glad that I watched entire video. Almost stopped after the first two "negative comments." Owner of car definitely a good sport receiving honest criticism or opinions without getting offended.

As I’m watching , you need to test this car against a standard GR. 80bhp is a massive gain , I’d like to see this gain in the real world.

Wing, exhaust and intake are the most essential. The rest of the kit is just too chav and the original ride height is great for the type of car it is.

Honestly that’s actually so nice

That yaris looks epic

Diffuser that is sloping down (instead up - expanding ) and no wheel vents, eq length headers?

I didn't like the spoiler, it looked too busy but the rest of the kit looked awesome though I doubt I would spend money getting that done. I don't like the sound from the outside but it sounds bloody awesome from in the car which is what matters. All in all I'm a big fan of what he's done to this but I'd probably not lower seat at all being that I'm 2 inches shorter than him so my build would be a cheaper than his. I'd go for the power upgrades, suspension and leave the rest standard but deleting the nonsensical fake noises as he has too.

Keep them OEM Toyota engineers know better about their cars than non engineers, I like a little bit of cosmetics though to put your mark on the car and you can easily remove it when you eventually go to sell your car, punters will want the car to be as factory as much as possible. Akrapovic exhaust is a must 😊

The only thing worth buying is the akrapovic exhaust. My god that sound is addicting, you feel that you are driving a rally car.

The thing is Mat, you drove the new 2024 edition and was so excited by the new refinements/upgrades made and was thinking about POTENTIALLY selling your car and buying the new version. The extra money you could use to upgrade your own car than spending considerably more on buying the latest one

Gawd, that bodykit was last seen on a Fiesta in 1982.

Get the new car, and do the intake and exhaust mods on that. The body and suspension kits look good, as does the wrap, but are all unnecessary. Not sure the bigger rear wing would look good by itself. You can easily tune the car for more power, and as the new car has upgraded engine parts, it's a better candidate for such.
