Yeah... I wasn't expecting a car already offered in so few colors to ask for more money for some of them. I'll probably be hunting a white to keep my fully loaded price at/under $40k.

Or black... LoL

I'm glad a fully loaded core is right below your budget including destination. 🙌🏼

Never again... Not in Alabama.... Lol. My last 2 cars were black. I've learned my lesson.

Anyone seen Canadian pricing yet?

Anyone able to find Canadian pricing? With how cheap the packages are, I'm hoping CAD price is very low 40s assuming we only get a fully loaded core.

Don't worry, I'm just sitting here hitting refresh on my google search of "GR Corolla Canada price" over and over 🙃

Why is it so hard for journalists to get info right? 😂

Toyota gave you the info and somehow people are saying different things.

The performance pack is so cheap that I don't see why it isn't standard. Who would ever choose not to get it?

Probably a marketing thing to say the car starts at $36k. Plus, it'll be nicer for people upgrading diffs anyway to be able to get a Core without PP

Might end up like the Veloster N, which started out with an optional Performance Pack (LSD, +25hp, bigger wheels/stickier tires), but the base car being dropped from the lineup after a few years and the Performance Pack becoming standard equipment.

Yeah, not pleased with the final pricing. I would actually go with a core except I don’t want to pay that much for a car with fabric seats and matte plastic grill. The Circuit is over-priced at 44k (all included) for a hood, carbon roof, and leather seats. Essentially leather seating is locked behind a 4K paywall. While I’m sure, some will argue that it’s the roof that’s making it so expensive, the VW Golf R is 45k and has the same performance, more storage and interior room, and a much more posh interior then the Circuit. I can’t see buying a car of this caliber with cloth seats, they really should have offered that in an optional package on the Core.
So at this point, I’m in a bad position because even my maxed price was exceeded by about 2k. It will literally be down to “how much will all the extra fees be“ before I know if I will get one. I don’t need a car, so it’s still CE or bust for me, and we’re super close to bust at this point. Any ADM would be an insta-bust. So I’m in the unfortunate position of having to go through the entire process to see if things will work out, literally, at the last second.

Not Bad: The 2023 Toyota GR Corolla Will Start at $36,995

Starting MSRPs for the car are as follows: $36,995 for the base Core trim, $43,995 for the Circuit Edition, and $50,995 for the Morizo Edition.

www.thedrive.com

Summary: pricing to start is 36,995 for core, 42,900 for circuit and $50,995 for Morizo.

That is about what the leak said. But, release date for Core pushed back to Nov 2023! Circuit and Morizo first. Hm....

She just fixed the typo and said it should be Nov 2022. we gewd bois

 

[WolfpackAWD]

I take anything Kristen Lee writes with a huge grain of salt.

All other publications say November 2022.

Honestly she's better than most online journalists. The bar isn't exactly high these days. At least she escaped the cesspool known as Jalopnik.

Now I really understand why they need the Core model for the US, if they start from the RZ model like in Japan, it's most likely going to have a starting price of around 44k USD, which will turn off a lot of people.

 

[Sparkko]

Half the articles are saying $36,995 for Core and $43,900 for Circuit. The other half are saying $35,995 and $42,900. Heck I saw one that says $36,995 and $42,900. What's with all the price confusion? Did they not hand them the pricing directly??? lol

 

[Jeonsa]

All you guys guessing the car would start at 32k need to give up your allocation spots. 😂

Its the destination charge that's the extra $1000 or so. Some are including it, others aren't.

Ah, that makes more sense. Thanks.

It’s the $1k handling charge (see text at the bottom of the pricing bracket)

I'm sure "leather" Corolla hatch XSE heated seats bolt right in. Won't have fancy GR logo though. Lol

I was one of those people, but I'm keeping allocation. You can't have it.
