There were two versions of the GR Yaris.
95% + were the Circuit Pack. This had very light forged alloy rims, shod with super sticky Michelin rubber. Extra diffs, and a different suspension set up. Cost about £3k more at list.
My version is the Convenience Pack. Heavier alloys of a different design with Dunlop Sport tyres. Same wheel size (18”) and tyre profile. No tricks diffs, but has a better sound system, head up display, sat nav and slightly softer suspension. I’d no intention of taking it on a circuit or making a fool of myself on the ‘Ring so I thought what’s the point ?
Pretty much identical otherwise...
In reality, and on the public road, no one, apart from a professional racing driver, is going to notice the difference between the better handling Circuit and the Convenience Packs.
From memory, Harry’s Garage was Pearl effect Scarlet Flare with gold coloured wheels. Looks lovely, but I’m more than happy with mine in metallic ‘Precious Black’.
