I was a skeptic in the beginning and truly believed it would be another throw some suspension bits, fancy aero and minor power increase on a standard Corolla and slap the GR badge on it situation but I was way off base.
As you said all it really shares is a name. They are hand built away from the main plant and really deserve the GR prefix.
Still not convinced that the pricing rumours are accurate but even of the core is around the $35K mark there is little doubt that the price could double by the time they finish marking them up. Not like they will be sitting on lots because the price is too high.
