Pretty decent pricing compared to the Supra, but any of us who’ve been around for awhile can’t help but cringe at that pricing for a Z car regardless of its performance… 350 and 370 were never anywhere near that top end price.

We also have less colours and options available compared to USA it seems.
The Z thread is here

Looks like Toyota is handpicking people for the Morizo model.

That's super lame. You have to interview to buy a Toyota.

FU Toyota.

This is also printed in the fine print below
"(i) west region – two (2) prizes available"

Is this their way to get the car in the hands of an enthusiast as opposed to a flipper?

what’s the other option when they can only make 9 of them for Canada? Morizo is a lot more intensive than even circuit…if you can get core you’re doing great (at least we get lsd’s unlike US and it’s under 50k

it’s a miracle the gr powertrain is even coming to North America, they could’ve laughed goodfellas style and redirect us to the apex trim

More like yotubers and social media personalities. They want to know what platforms you are on and how many times you post a week.

They should just do a lottery and call it a day. This interview process is BS. Are they going to fact check what people write on their questionnaires?

Given the questions asked it's very likely they will pick someone with a lot of online clout to be the recipients of these cars, or people with a ton of track experience and/or a history of owning cool cars.

At the end of the day Toyota can decide how they want to distribute the cars, but going through a lottery system would've been the most fair IMO.

Lotto.

I don't like the whole pick the best ticktoker but i get it.

320icar 09-25-2022 08:30 AM
It’s. A. Fucking. Corolla.

I do too. I love all ratrollas in all formats. It’s cheap, reliable transportation that will take care of you for 10+ years and never skip a beat.

jcmaz 09-25-2022 02:29 PM
They should bid farewell to the CHR with the GR Corolla drivetrain. Unique looking hatchback with power to match.

I'm not sure if this is a sport package trim, but I always found this Corolla hatch looked pretty good. The latest Corollas, both sedan and hatch look good. Just too bad the performance numbers didn't really match with the body. They added aesthetic mods like the Nightshade and Apex but didn't bump up the power.

The Apex model added suspension tuning along with the cosmetic changes

apex exhaust sounds great…much better than whatever TRD Camry etc

there’s always this one Uber driver with one thinking kingsway rush hour is time attack

Badhobz 09-26-2022 07:10 AM
I like the upgraded 2.0 engine on the hatch and the SE. I think paired with a stick, it should be a fun little toy to mess around with. 167hp isnt half bad, the old 2zz XRS ratrolla only produced 170hp albeit in a way more fun yammy headed engine with valve lift.

Which isn't ideal, but I'll still take them over a bunch of "collectors" who will just let them rot in storage.

Manic! 10-01-2022 10:27 AM
Got a call from my dealer asking me about what trim level I wanted. I told him circuit was my first choice then core. He told me Canada is getting only 8 Morizo editions.

underscore 10-01-2022 02:15 PM
Yeah and the only way to get one is to apply to a lottery thing.

SkunkWorks 10-01-2022 02:25 PM
It's not really a 'lottery' if you need to fill out an application form with all your proof of social media presence, is it? :lol
