Scores need to be personalised - Matt weighted every category evenly. The Yaris is a great little car but it is tiny - no one with kids / friends could live with the car on a daily basis. Visibility is terrible with the A Pillars, Infotainment rear mirror. Manual box is very very notchy, and you need to take an UBER from the break pedal to the accelerator - so no heel an toe like the Type R. Maybe owners are hoping the GR will follow the increase in value of the Lancia HF Delta Integrales / Impreza 22B ? Buy those cars actually competed and won WRC championships. The Yaris never will. Bang for buck Type R has to be 1st.

It isn't meant for straight line acceleration, like the Nissan GT-R, Porsche 911 Turbo S, etc, but for what he did, it was pretty impressive. And even the current Type R that'll come out soon did a 2:23 time at Suzuka Curcuit I believe when Honda released that video of the upcoming Civic Type R.

@@wanglee21 There is no such thing as a sports car not meant to be fast on a straight line but on the corners. Most cars around 300bhp can do around 5 and a half seconds to 100kphh. Its just Honda makes better manuals than most other brands, as shifts are really short, certainly 'faster' than the Hyundai DCT double wet clutch. A really good manual driver shouldn't be spinning the wheels. Rather, he should be holding the clutch and throttle simultaneously while the car is not moving but revving and then suddenly release the clutch. That way, the car flies straight away from the get go.

3 different but fun cars. Nice video highlighting their strengths and weaknesses. I don’t care about the scores but lots of great info and entertainment in here.

If you went by cost per features the GR is much, much better. If you go by Mileage per kilometre the GR is best. If you go by snow and ice performance the GR is best. The GR is almost like the Lotus Cortina back in the day. Faster, handles better and can beat other cars through cornering. At one point in time in the USA I had seven Cortina's with two that were Lotus. I would love to have one GR Yaris, even though I am now 68 years old I still love twisty roads going fast.

I must have a GR Yaris. It's the car I dreamed of when I was a teenager in the 80's, while driving various small cars fast on twisty country roads. I had a '75 Celica GT, followed by an '80 Scirocco. My best friend had an '86 Civic Si, among other things. I thought at the time the best possible car would be an Audi Quattro Sport. I feel like this Yaris brings the spirit of that Audi homologation special to life in an attainable form.

Having driven the Civic I think that makes sense. It's not an easy car to get the maximum out of. Also honestly the 'Ring time is...well it's not a lie but they must have had utterly ideal conditions and a perfect lap. It's 15 secs quicker than my 981 Cayman S...but around a bunch of other 2 minute laps like Laguna Seca the 981 is 3-5 secs faster on average. I tested the Civic before buying the 981 and in the hands of a non-pro driver like myself the 981 is on a totally different level. I suspect without a bunch of practice I'd be a good 30s quicker round the 'Ring in the Porsche. The Civic is rewarding when you get it right though, so this can all be a positive thing.

Well, starting from 0 mph, and if we use 0-60, the Type R is already losing maybe 2 seconds to the AMG. IMO, Should’ve been a hot lap.

Hi Mat Well done ! You’re right to have picked the Yaris GR I’ve just taken delivery of mine and, as you say, it’s epic! I’ve had lots of sports and competition cars and driven Curborough many times. I even had the outright double lap record for a while… Anyway, enough of the pomposity… The Yaris is such an engaging little car - it’s got such sweet handling, really balanced and great feedback. The engine is surprisingly sweet and, as a daily driver, I have found that it’s really easy to use. Being an old fart, who had a Mark 1 Golf GTi first time around, this GR has the same appeal. Sporty with useability. In your comparison, the Merc is fabulous, but it’s so much more expensive and, with that power, it should be quicker. The Civic is great, every respect to it, but it’s a bit too obvious for me. In my time, I have had the obligatory Impreza and a 470bhp Evo, but each of these stood out and shouted their presence far too much. Embarrassing sometimes. The GR doesn’t. It sounds like a diesel to anyone outside… but plays a mighty tune in the cabin! I agree with you; it’s a watershed moment in car building. One that is unlikely to be repeated. I feel very fortunate to have one. For anyone on the cusp… just ******* buy it. You won’t regret it! All the best Steve

Can you explain why you should get the circuit pack for the Yaris? Have you driven the car with the open differential?

Considering the one second loss in gear changes, those are some quick cars.

The Yaris is good enough, but by given the same amount of money, I would go with type R, if the money wasn’t an issue and then Merc.

Very much looking forward to the GR Corolla. Especially since we can actually buy one here in the states. More power and torque with the same great engine and AWD system. Thing should be a weapon.

I feel that the Mercedes AMG A45 S should be in its own class along with the Audi RS3. Maybe something along the lines of "Hyper Hatch".

Would the manual cars still have a soft limiter if you put it into first gear without releasing the clutch and then rev it?

I think the Yaris had some trouble going to 60 cause you made a gearchange everytime just before 60, maybe you would have hit the rev limited otherwise but anyway :)
