I remember when this channel had around 5000 subscribers. I knew he was going to do well. Great job Luke!
Appreciate it!
Best filmer on the whole platform

He’s incredible, just wish he uploaded more
Seriously, is not even close with the next one.
Total agreement
The thing that you demonstrate Luke, is that you can have driving fun in a hypercar or a small displacement, yet powerful fun machine. No need for drifting or drag racing; just pure enjoyment.Thanks for another real world video.
Ohlins suspension is amazing. Every time I see a GR Yaris, I can’t help but stare. Fabulous video, Luke!
You could sell me on a Fiat Panda. Incredible cinematography - just a masterpiece of automotive content. Aced it again.
Ha cheers! I do love the old Pandas though.
Your comments remind me of the old Evo Makkinen edition … it only makes sense as both cars where set up by that same person.
Couple of weeks ago i was in Liguria driving the Highway from Genua to France and i was able to keep up with all the high Power Sportscars, i lost them a bit on the straights but was easily able tho catch them in the corners. On mountain roads i‘m always stuck behind seemingly faster cars and bikes and my Yaris is totally stock. It‘s also a very easy car to drive fast if you get to know it‘s characteristics a bit.
Again a wonderful Video by Luke (i don‘t even want to call it „a video“ his contents are more like a immersive artful experience)
Nice to see how much you enjoy this car. Have driven about 18K km myself in it and still love it!
Yeah I'm sitting around 32k kms now sooo good as my daily
love and share the fun you have with this car ... mine is almost 3 years old and I still enjoy every single moment of driving it
No one else on youtube does colour correction like you , your videos always look stunning !
🙏
the quality of the videos caught my attention, seeing a swiss nr-plate on in kept me here. born and still live in the same canton :D. would like to get a ride in this, even as passenger.
@@carswithluke your shark blue GT3 video brought me here in case you were wondering !
@@JakeM240Awesome 🤘🏻
Amazing how you capture light
Was just on some back roads outside of Bern for work a few weeks ago and it was magnificent driving! This takes me back.
After a 15 month wait, I just got hold of a GR Corolla and my one real gripe are also the seats, cannot lower them enough. Otherwise just fun to drive and just enough space to work as daily. The engine and the AWD are amazing, but the handling and sound are also great in stock spec. This is working great as my one and only car.
How much was it out the door?
Subbed by 35 seconds. Incredible videography in the intro.
I know it’s only July, but i can’t wait for snow videos😁
Was thinking about it the last days 😅
@@carswithluke yeah, the atmosphere is so magical with snow. In the meantime, I'll watch some videos from last winters (the ones with Audi RS4 and RS6 in Austria are epic)🙌
Im from SoCal and funny enough I was watching the other episodes about this car last night. I just bought a GR corolla and took it to the canyon this morning. Handles insanely well and worth every penny!
Man the intro is a fking masterpiece! Love that car
Cheers 🙏
Love the video! I have my own which I've been using daily, when I take my friends out we all callout the smile machine too hahaha
Holy Moly !
😬
Great vid. I moved from the usa to Portugal a year ago and I picked up a GR Yaris. It’s great on the tight and twisty roads here in the north of Portugal. I must say, the landscapes in this video are stunning. Reminds me of Oregon (my favorite state) back in the US.
Actually, the scenery is a hybrid of Alaska and Oregon. Unreal.
Awesome Luke! Really enjoying your excitement.
Quick question, which pas you’re on in this video? I’m planning to hit some passes in August with my motorcycle.
I have to say a sad thing, your video are such in high quality I don't watch them directly when they get published because it would be on my phone and I wouldn't enjoy the great job enough... I like to wait and be on my 4k work monitor during my lunchbreak. The sad thing is that I sometimes forget to watch. Keep doing your great work Luke and I'll try to stop forgetting to watch ;) !
Fantastic car and even Better video!
Cheers 🤘🏻
again great quality video and amazing photo shoots ! which camera do you use to film ?
I've got a GR Yaris myself, it's my first car and I love it to bits. Thanks for your video, it's amazing to share your experience!
@@matmul4850 I'm not the tallest individual, so the seat height on the GR Yaris is perfect for me!
I do plan on upgrading my exhaust and suspension.
Your Videos are such an enjoyment to watch. 😊👍🏾
Happy to hear :)
love this car!
Your video editing is simply incredible! Yaris looks good as your Porsche GT3!! Forgot you had Yaris. 🙂
I’ve done 41000 miles in my pearl circuit car it now fits like a glove. It’s a bonkers car. Trust me it gets better as the miles piles on, it doesn’t loosen up until the 12000 miles service. A to B it’s really fast in all weathers.
What exactly changed after the 12000 miles service? Mine is at 11k
Fantastic Video Luke, favorite channel on CZcams. Must admit, I've been using my GR Yaris in bad weather 🥶
Cheers! Yes it actually seems to love bad weather
Dismounting the wheels, I managed to fit a 33kg emtb in the back with rear seats down. So yes, it is possible and quick release tyres make it work within 5 min :)
Anti-slide mat adviced
Big fan!
👊🏻
Great car. Great video. Can't wait for your future Type R video.
Cheers!
Hi Luke!
I get you! Mine is pretty much stock, but I have had mine since february! It has around 9000 Km and except the clutch which went bye bye (through no fault of mine), I absolutely loved every minute with it ☺️ It is my daily as well, btw.
Maybe, at one point, I will change a few things
Amazing! And yes the clutch is tricky so I honestly can imagine they could go quick.
Love my GR and it’s been beyond my expectations
Great review.
The GR Yaris is quite fantastic, very efficient, but the sound of the stock exhaust is not great.
It's the best small sport car on the market.
Beautiful video! I mean it looks, like a Netflix documentary bro!!!! visuals are woowww
Thanks 🙏
The wheels look great with the car.
I work in Social Media and I make reels for my company. I'm only learning, but one day I hope to have this level of precision, video quality, and colour grading. 3rd time watching this video, and it's still as beautiful. Well done
lovely car. thank you for this video!
🤘🏻
May i ask, what kind of camera/video equipment do you use? Pristine quality. Love your content. Keep it up! :)
I cannot agree more! I got one and I adore it!
You know the fun then!
@@carswithluke totally!
Just bought one. Love it
Nice enjoy!
hey, would you please do a screenshot collection of the first minute?
The cenimatic is so freaking cool❤
WHAT a car! Love it!
Braided Brake lines really add to this car too!
🙏
3:19 normal position for a car owner when his car is at repair shop lifted is removing scraped out plastic from bumper 😁 I can defenately relate to that
Amazing video thank you Luke!
The color of the wheels is superior - what color code is it??
Good for you!
Nicest Yaris I have seen, not over done, just right
I'm so jealous yall get the Yaris. Such a cool car!
Bro, WYAO and you'll get one. 😉
@@lollypop9580 I can afford it, the problem is they are not legal to own or import to the United States until 25 years have passed.
@@BigBoyz33rue. But we do get the Carolla GR (albeit at dealership markup).
Hey Luke, I've been searching for the lens you used in the beginning of the video ( the cinematic intro of the car) because i just fell in love with those shots. Can you tell me in a reply or send me a link of the whole setup? Thanks!
The seating position issue is always funny to me. Reminds me of the Focus RS. From what I've read, rally cars always have a higher than usual seating position for visibility which is why cool cars like this have this seat height as a "con." Would be nice if from factory you could spec a lower seat though. Great vid as always Luke!
Ha yes exactly! I get the high seat thing but if you’re 1.90 like me then it really is too high
Got used to mine now and don’t mind it, gives you a better view down the road when really pushing on. I did lower the passenger seat though as that is really high
@@Andy-2022 So jealous of all you that are able to buy these in your region. If we had them in the states, one would be in my garage right now.
Lack of space, huh? Sounds like you need a daily for your daily! LOL I must take one for a test drive, just for the fun of it :D
Exactly 😂 car guy logic, 2 unpractical cars.
I love my GR, get excited every time I get in it. And yes, I think people get scared when I come up behind them 😂
You my good sir might have just built the best GR yaris OMG🙆🏾♂️🤯🔥🔥
Intake sound is absolutely crazy! 👀 even more noticeable in real life!
imagine luke would do a daily vlog. he would blow up!
I’d love to have one of this to complete my garage next to my levorg and use it as trak weapon or who knows maybe as a daily
Amazing cinematography with an amazing model! Luke, is it possible to post a link to the seat lowering kit you have fitted? I'm considering one for mine as well.
Thanks! If you look on the last video with my Yaris where we did the main mods there is a link in that description
Awesome! Hadn't seen that. They're even referencing you in the link. Cool 👌 Thanks a lot. I will really consider fitting. The original seat height is really #1 problem with this car. And they aren't many!
This is not CZcams video anymore. It's a freaking cinema 😂
Have you done a film on what camera gear you use?
Such a little beast. Every time I see one of these on the road I'm snappin' my neck.....
Ha yeah they really do that which is funny at the end being a “Yaris”
dude I have one and I feel like no one cares about the GR Yaris, doesn't get a lot of looks
I feel the same, very few people in the UK seem to notice my black GR
I want one of these 😩😩😩
What could be better than little tech masterpiece on the mountain pass, doing some rrra-ta-ta 😜
Hi Luke - I have a similar GR Yaris , I have done the evanturi and most recently stuck the full Akra system on it … your right about the sound as mine does feel a little bit obnoxious with the link pipe 😂
Are you going to remap it ? I’m thinking bigger intercooler and cams and then remap as priority over the suspension. Could you let me know what the actual model of the suspension you went for ?
Cheers - also I need a good exhaust for my gt4 would you go JCR?
There is only 1 Ohlins :) and no remap, I don’t like playing around with electronics personally and for what it is I think it’s plenty fast enough especially now with intake, exhaust and downpipe.
Hi. Is the milltek exhaust resonated or non resonated? You mentioned not making it too obnoxious. Is that messing with the cat? Thanks. Great video.
Resonated as that’s the only one that’s legal here and no doesn’t touch the cat.
The 2 Toyotas I've owned, basically never broke down, both were killed in car crashes.
Oh no sorry man!
Here in the states I'm waiting to trade in my scion im /Toyota auris for an auto GR Corolla in 2024. Not happy that it's smaller than the Auris which I think was the perfect size (coming from the Toyota matrix) but it'll do and I'll finally get my Japanese real hot hatch to work with my hybrid rav4 soft roader.
Loved this video, love the car BUT missed a coffee kicker on this one! I'm in the states so the GR Yaris isn't available to us but I'm seriously considering a GR Corolla.
Cheers, I can’t not to do coffee in every video 😂 and yeah the corolla is cool but sadly not a good as the Yaris.
I love my gr Yaris 2. It is a unique car that gives lot of fun. Ps. Mine is with KW coilovers that also works perfect and they are bit cheaper ;)
what i dont like about the GR edition is the "old" Infotainment ....the cloud system is just dope ...and if you buy a 2022 GR you just have the old system...and maybe they can add a bit "GR" for the infotaiment like hyundai with the N Infotaiment this would be a game changer with laptimes etc.
Regarding mountain bike, did you try with both wheels removed also?
Hi, which exhaust did you put on your Yaris? Is it road legal for CH?
I love your videos, they’re great. So what is the story with the Eventuri intake and exhaust upgrades. I live in Zurich and was told by all garages I can’t install those things on my GR Yaris because they’re illegal here. Is there something they’re not telling me that you know of? I’m aching to upgrade mine. Appreciate any info you can share. Thanks!
Exhaust is fully legal and comes with papers, would only not be legal if you didn’t install the centre silencer.
Nice video. What seat rails do you use for lowering?
Cheers, in the description on the previous video with the Yaris when we do the mods
Absolute Icon,
Best car I've ever owned.
How do we get rid of creaking interior? I’ve got the same thing with my VW Polo GTI 6C
I'd love to know how it compares to a peugeot 208 GT. My parents have the 208 GT and boy is that thing nice for such a small car, suoer nice interior aswell
I put on over 10.000 km on my GR Yaris and I have not noticed any interior creeks on mine, also the seat hight is fine for me, only 1,75m tall
Lucky you! I heard the creeks are common. I'm 1.90 so the seat height was terrible for me.
Can youv plz drive the new brabus rocket 900r?🤩
More Yaris videos!
Bro which camera / gear are you using?
You are a very good CZcamsr.
Didnt someone say you could hack the car to give 100% power to rear wheels? Could be fun 👌🏼
what camera gear are you using?
You do not need to change the exhaust or the suspension, what’s wrong with the factory suspension… nothing, it’s extremely good, there’s loads of aftermarket brands hyping their stuff and you have to see that for what it is and realise Toyota over engineered this car in many areas , including the dampers.
I would love to see you in a civic type r as a daily, you can fit a bike easily
I really want to test the new one, first one I like the look of
Check out Seasucker bike racks for a solution that will work with the Yaris. :)
Hi Luke! Could you find a way to homologate the Eventuri intake here in Switzerland?
Follow, I'd like to know too.
which exhaust did you end up installing on this :o
i too am looking for something that makes this sound nicer but not antisocial levels of loud.
Miltek, it’s all on another video if you search it
Great video as usual.
Cheers 🙏
Sind die Felgen lackiert oder gepulvert ? Wie nennt sich die Farbe, ich denke das steht meinem weißen bestimmt auch gut 😊
Lackiert Porsche Weissgold :)
@Luke, can you say anything wrong or annoying about the GR Yaris? So far sounds like the perfect car of all times :)
Luke, I slightly confused about not been able to fit mtb bike inside. I've specifically googled this and saw quite a lot of photos with bike inside of yaris GR. What kind of mtb you can't put in?
Downhill bike, If you remove both wheels you can, it’s just not practical and after trying it once it also caused scratches inside. For me anyway if you have to remove both wheels on a bike to fit it in then it doesn’t work. It’s just very small inside.
@@carswithluke Oh. I assume it is impossible to fit DH bike with just one wheel removed into anything smaller then Focus/Golf/Megan or even bigger cars. I recently had bad luck with missing cup on lefty wheel hub and drove with front wheel pretty much on the top of my head :) Anyway, thanks for clarification.
Oh man... I wish I could have bought one when it's released. It's price since then increased waaay too much I can't keep up with it to save enough money.
song plsss
I love hot hatches. Just fun to drive.
100%
Song at the start ?
I have a question…. How did you keep your wheels so clean on the way to filming location!? 😂 those brakes are massive brake dust generators.
They really are! I had cleaning stuff in my boot! always shocked how dirty they are after one small drive.
@@carswithluke Ah you thought ahead 😉
