Oooh factory alignment numbers are green at -1.5° camber up front, average -1.8° in the back.
Probably details already posted in thread but whatever; https://toyotagazooracing.com/jp/gr/yaris/1stedition/ 225/40/18 Michelin PS4S on an 18x8 for the upgraded package, same size Dunlops for the lower trim. Torsen differentials on both front and rear axles, electronically controlled clutch system in what appears to be the center location. Curious about rear suspension, typical MacStrut front, but almost looks like a trailing arm rear? Japan uses double wishbone and multi-link interchangeably. Brakes might be too big to fit average 17" wheels which is a shame, but not untenable, 17's are on their way out anyway. |

Strike while the iron is hot, motherfuckers. If you wait another year or two, we'll all be hot for something else. That's exactly what happened to the new Supra.

Interesting story, Gazoo scraping developing the new Yaris GR4 for this and next year's racing.. Hybrid version expected for 2022... What does it mean for the new car?

Sounds like Yaris is dead in the US after 2020.
So this either means its gone for good cuz Murica hates small things, or theres a slight possibility a new Yaris could be revived later and it'll be the global Yaris instead of the rebadged Mazda2. Im hoping for the latter to happen up in Canada....we seem to like small cars enough to actually buy them. |

Does anyone have a plan to pre-order one? In Europe you can already register ... If yes, would you order the one with the torsen or the base one?

I was very close to placing an order for the full fat version (wasn't sure about the colour, Black or White) but the uncertainty of the job market due to the effing virus stalled my plan. See what 2021 brings...
