GR Yaris The Latest on GR Yaris (UK waiting list)

I'm sure convenience and standard are coming down too with 7 each.

There are more gt86's on sale.

Very strange to receive this email (see below) today. Did anyone else get it? Not much used stock at dealers (36 cars?) and order books not open. So pretty pointless?

Hi xxxxx​
From the very beginning, we realised that the New GR Yaris was just too specialised to be built alongside the conventional Yaris.

Indeed, only by creating a bespoke, low volume, sports car production facility from scratch, were we able to craft the perfectly-tuned driver’s car you’ll soon be able to call your own.

To learn more about the unique manufacturing measures introduced exclusively for GR Yaris, watch the full story below.​
 
I got an email today, saying "While you wait patiently on the list, why not discover a little more about the origin story behind GR Yaris? .....etc"

That’s the gist of it. But I really can’t see the order book opening up again….
 
In most companies, the marketing department lives in its own little bubble, almost totally disconnected from the realities of the core business.

Doesn’t look like Toyota UK is any different in that regard 😁
 
Quite interesting re the numbers on auto trader as I feel like quite a few makes and models are a fair bit lower than usual currently? Eg Ive been browsing GT86s/BRZs recently (long story short I want to keep my Yaris relatively stock and a priority, so looking at something less ‘precious’ or that I’d be happy to swap around) and there are hardly any of those either which is a bit wild.

Saw a GR86 in the flesh at last today btw, looks superb. Might also explain the dash for GT86s.
 
Oooh 86 circuit packs yesterday and 80 today on autotrader.
 
33 used GR Yaris (all 3 versions) currently offered via Toyota UK website. Might also be interesting to track these numbers
