This kit is engineered with precision and designed to perform.
VS-Style Dry Carbon Hood:
Large, functional air vents now getting cooler temps where it matters. This hood isn’t just about looking aggressive; it’s also about scrubbing off a significant amount of weight off one of the largest surface areas on the car.

It’s all in the details. These trims might seem subtle, but they add a distinct edge to your vehicle’s profile, complementing your aggressive track stance.
MB-Style Carbon Fiber Lip
This isn’t just a lip kit; it’s an all-around aerodynamic-enhancement that channels air precisely where you need it, stabilizing your car at high speeds and ensuring grip when it matters most.
OEM-Style Carbon Fiber Rear Spoiler:
Stability isn’t just about keeping your car on the track—it’s about confidence at high speeds. This spoiler adds downforce where it counts, helping your GR Corolla stick to the road like glue.
Dry Carbon Roof Replacement:
Drop weight from the highest point of your car to lower its center of gravity. This not only improves handling but also gives your Corolla a sleek, race-ready look that’s both functional and fiercely stylish.
Carbon Fiber Lift Gate:
Finish off your build with a statement piece that cuts weight even at the rear, enhancing both aesthetics and performance. It’s the ultimate upgrade for those who leave nothing to chance.
Are You Ready to Transform Your Ride?

Every component is a blend of passion and technology, designed with a 2×2 twill weave carbon fiber for unmatched strength and a flawless finish.

If you've been waiting for an exciting new Toyota to put in your driveway, you're in luck - Toyota FINALLY unveiled the all-new 2023 GR Corolla last week after months of hints and teasers indicating that it was coming. Here are some of the highlights that the new GR Corolla will have to offer when it arrives at Toyota of Orlando!
Two models - the Core and Circuit models. The Circuit model will only be available for the 2023 model year.
A sports all-wheel-drive system with adjustable front/rear torque distribution
Front and rear Torsen Limited-Slip differential for enhanced cornering and grip
A turbocharged G16E-GTS 3-cylinder engine that offers 300 horsepower and 273 lb-ft of torque, as well as a six-speed intelligent manual transmission
A three-piece muffler for less exhaust pressure and a quieter drive time
An optional forged carbon fiber roof
A black matrix grille with LED exterior lighting, rear wings, glossy black exterior accents, lower side rockers, a rear spoiler, and an aerodynamic design
An interior teched out with features like a 12.3" color multi-information display, Drive Connect Intelligent Assistant, voice controls, cloud-based navigation, and push-button start
A sleek cabin trimmed in Brin Naud suede and synthetic leather, red stitching, special GR badging, sport seats, and aluminum sport pedals
Not to mention, it looks AWESOME. The new 2023 GR Corolla sits low and wide, which not only improves handling but gives it a sporty and aggressive appearance. Couple that with exceptional performance capabilities (thanks, Gazoo Racing), and you've got a winner that's both track- and street-ready.

Euro-Market Toyota Corolla GR Sport Is the Yin to the Apex Edition’s Yang
Toyota just took the wraps off of one of the most performance-focused Corollas we’ve seen in a long time. The 2021 Corolla Apex Edition is lower, stiffer, and generally offers moar sport than you’d expect from the Toyota compact sedan. It’s a Corolla for people who like driving, and that’s cool. But the Corolla GR Sport, which recently broke cover for the European market, might be even better, if only due to the fact it ditches some of the Apex Edition’s tackier design elements (have you seen that rear wing?).
The GR Sport won’t make its way to the United States, though. For now, the only GR-branded product Toyota plans on bringing to the U.S. is the Supra (we’ll see how long that lasts, though). But that doesn’t mean we can’t look on from afar. The whole point of the Corolla GR Sport, per Toyota, is to bring the Gazoo Racing brand to other segments and thereby introduce it to younger buyers. Both Mercedes and BMW have done something similar with their AMG and M sub-brands, which offer less powerful variants as sporty entry-level options to many of the two performance arms’ racier models.
The GR Sport is essentially an accent package to give the Euro-market Corolla a little bit more visual oomph. There are small changes all over the exterior of the car: black mirror caps, black bumper accents, black door sill décor, and a discrete, body-colored trunk-lid spoiler. A set of sporty, multispoke wheels complete the new look. Inside, the Corolla gets a pair of aggressively bolstered, racy-looking front seats that appear as though they’d be more at home in a Porsche than a Corolla.
While it doesn’t make the Corolla an out-and-out performance machine, the GR Sport’s appearance is a bit easier on the eyes than the aforementioned Apex Edition. It’s less in your face and somehow more purposeful looking. Toyota will offer the GR Sport kit on both the 1.6-liter four-cylinder Corolla, as well as the gasoline-electric Corolla Hybrid. Notably missing from its powertrain menu, though, is the 169-hp 2.0-liter four-pot found under the hood of the U.S.-spec Apex Edition (not to mention the SE and XSE trims). Sure, we like the handsome looks of the GR Sport, but we’ll happily accept the slightly kitschier styling of the Apex Edition to enjoy the extra grunt of its bigger engine.
