Passion project cars like this get tossed at Toyota because the customers who actually buy the cars are truck dudes, soccer moms, and broke college kids. If you want race cars. You have to buy race cars. NEW. Buying used is kinda a slap in the face to the R&D team.
The story of the GR Yaris road car project going coming to a head stemmed from the WRC regulations being scrapped (which the GR Yaris was designed for) and the FIA shifted towards the upcoming Rally1 regulations instead. Toyota was burned because they badly wanted to race this engine (and also that amazing chassis) in WRC.
No. Kei Car is regulated to have a 660cc engine with a power limit of 64 PS and a max length of 3.4m, 1.48m max width, and 2m max height. My car is a 1000cc 3cyl with a power of 98ps the body is also much bigger than kei cars at 4.030m length, 1.71m width, and a 1.635m height. This is a Mini SUV.The Tesla is a damn good car, that just happens to be electric. Your comparison of the model 3 to a Yaris is like comparing the Yaris to a BMW 340i and being upset that the Toyota is more economical. It's like, "no shit, but the BMW is the better car by miles in literally every other category". The point of the Tesla wasn't to be the most I've extracted three cars which fit my criteria budget wise, as I can't really assess reliability given my inexperience of car knowledge, hence why I'm seeking your help. The cars I've picked out are: (I'm not sure whether I'm allowed to insert number plates in this post) - Suzuki Swift 1.3 Diesel 2009 plate. - Toyota Yaris 1.0 Petrol 2005 plate. In addition to a good (albeit not powerful) Toyota engine, this car has a full Toyota Safety Sense 2.5 at every package model as well as things like Apple, Android and Alexa built-in. The problem with the car is mostly in relation to things like size and power for the price. This is NOT meant for a family of six (or even five).
