Wow, thats a great idea for the low pro jack. Going to have to look at getting one of those.

Can’t wait to see you drive the GR and what you think. I got one at my dealer and might pull the trigger on it.

Hey what's up!! I never got a chance to drive a WRX STi but the GRC gives me the "older brother from another mother" vibe lol. Speaking of which I did start recording myself driving the vehicle with initial impressions. Waiting for the odo to hit 1K before really testing the car out. Your patience will pay off fam', the demand has certainly fell for these cars.

It never ceases to surprise me how incompetent some dealerships are. Is this only on the GR Corolla? Got a 2023 GR86 and didnt have any issues with this. Although I did have to have my engine rebuilt at 5K miles because of RTV buildup which really sucked. Thankfully Toyota took care of everything and now its been running better than ever.

Hey what's up!! Yeah, I feel you bro. had a great experience buying the car but I know they are a large volume dealer so pre-delivery service techs are likely overworked and constantly replaced. This still does not excuse them from poor work performance . I believe the spacers only came on the GR Corolla and the MKV Supra. Dude, love the GR86. The options TRD and Gazoo offer aftermarket for that car are beyond amazing. I just cant handle dealing with another Subaru engine lol.

Glad I’m not the only one! I also checked for the spring spacers a couple of time with a flashlight at night. It wasn’t until after 700 miles when I removed wheels to install my new Mishimoto wheel spacers from GR Performance Parts did I see them. They had shifted around behind the dampers, and blended in with all the black colors.

that's an interesting garage layout. I've never seen a 3+1 deeper space.

Hey what's up!! lol, you sound like an organized car collector which is awesome! Yeah, the space where the WRX is parked was an optional builder add-on since the lot was wide.

Ive only seen it on townhomes that have a garage as the entire bottom floor in flood zones (washington state)

@@YungSteambuns Hey what's up! Wow, no idea they had flooding areas in Washington state. Sucks the garage has to be sacrificed like that.

He gonna protect the dealer, so they can keep selling us cars they they aren't prepping properly. To me, that's not appropriate. This guy isn't on our side.

Hey what's up! I am sorry if you are dissatisfied but I privately notified the dealership to take action. If the concern is finding out which dealerships to avoid, there are forum threads dedicated to this topic as well as online reviews. I am glad you came across this video and hopefully this will help other GRC owners. Thanks for your comment!! I appreciate all my viewers who take the time to write.

You should have taken it back to the dealer.

Hey what's up!! Yeah, that was the first thought in my mind followed by "I aint got time for this!!" I decided to document the dealer's negligence and emailed my service advisor and salesperson.
