Hi all. I have a black standard car built and left the factory, looking to change to circuit pack but don’t want to wait until March. Anyone want to swap orders if they have a circuit pack or thinking of cancelling and I cancel mine. Ideally white or black. PM me if able to help out.
Potentially. Just had Toyota UK confirm no warranty cover for track days which kind of defeats the object for me. ecsrobin said:

Nice, will properly watch later. Good to see no pixelation this time!Sam.M said:

Agreed. I'm now used to a digital speedo read-out having had it on various cars and bikes, so this would also be useful (unless anyone knows if the TFT panel in between the rev counter and speedo can be configured to show this?), but I'll settle for a carbon roof, alloy panels, split 4wd, bespoke chassis & engine, proper gearbox etc. etc.
BTW a friend has recently ordered a 911/992. He paid £3500 for options that are included in the 'base' Yaris GR; folding mirrors, black wheels, adaptive cruise and rear camera. He couldn't afford Porsche's carbon roof option.

Driver or engine mapping? I know some cars seem to rev hold on upshift for emissions. Hoping it’s just his driving style!

You sure? A buddy of mine out there is looking at them and from what he says website lists the GR and the High Performance Pack and neither mention the convenience pack features.
The German website site is for some reason really behind. Nothing has changed on there for months and still only talks about reserving one while in other regions like the UK the actual configurator is already live. The site also only lists the performance stuff. I got a paper from my dealer though that says that the car has Toyota Safety Sense 2.0 which includes the stuff I care about like adaptive cruise control and the lane keeping stuff. The rest is neat but not a necessity. My current Yaris GRMN has pretty much nothing in that regard so it's not like I would miss anything if the car comes without it.Edited by Galerion on Wednesday 21st October 16:06

Given the recent decision to release the convenience pack, I'd be surprised if we see that many GR Yaris grade cars being sold.
I can't imagine many people who don't want the diffs would pass up adding the Convenience Pack for the sake of what, £1200 or so?
When Toyota revealed the convenience pack add on to the non Circuit pack I changed my order from boggo spec to include the convenience pack. I'm not going to use all the added features (Toyota's nav is pants to use) but I didn't want the harder suspension of the circuit pack when I have a number of speed humps/potholes to drive over every day to work and back.I can't imagine many people who don't want the diffs would pass up adding the Convenience Pack for the sake of what, £1200 or so?

I really fancy one of these but I am worried the suspension will be rock hard and you cant get a mechanical LSD without the concrete suspension (circuit pack) option. Are they all sold out or do you think there will be stock to buy following a test drive? I would hate to make another wrong decision on a car that is just too rock hard for the UK?
The only difference is stiffer front springs. It won't be rock hard. I wouldn't worry. I've got one on order.shoestring7 said:

You can display a digital speedo in the TFT. It's what I'll do for on the road having had a few cars with digital speedos which I far prefer.

I reckon non circuit packs cars will be easy to pick up after a test drive, since from my understanding it seems that it's the CP cars that are the ones 'flying off the shelf'.
Perhaps but they won't have an LSD. Bit fed up of these option packs why cant we just pick and choose! ecsrobin said:

What's with the carbon lower dash section? Will UK cars get that?Toltec said:
Oddly they do not make them test with a driver and 1, 2 & 3 passengers, plus luggage. Which probably make more difference than a different brand of speaker.
How fat are the passengers? How heavy is the luggage? Where exactly does it go? Too many variables to test. The manufacturers can at least settle on a limited number of specs.Darren198 said:

These parts are sold in “GR Stores” in Japan and available at point of car purchase through your Toyota dealer.
I’ve yet to track down a GR Store to contact them to ask if they can supply outside of Japan. Not tried a dealer yet.
