Which hurts more? Libreng Injection or BASUKA?

Mang Ben's afraid of needles


Mang Ben visits the hospital for some free injection on another Mang Ben for the July 11, 2011 episode of Banana Split Daily Servings! Bad thing he didn't know what injection is because he's focusing on some pretty nurse but until when he saw the nurse injecting the patient, that's what Mang Ben panics because he's scared of needles. One way to do is to hide his arms on his shirt and when he's next this looks abrasive. The doctor has arrived and injected Mang Ben's butt!

Letterman turns KARITON into KARATE

Alpha Bert turns BASURA into BASUKA!

Another thing more painful than "Libreng Injection" is some karate and bazooka on another Alpha Bert vs. Letterman. Letterman meddles with some junk collector and Alpha Bert approaches. Letterman made his first move by using the junk collector's KARITON and turn it into KARATE. Despite Letterman's KARATE, Alpha Bert wins by using the junk collector's BASURA and turn it into BASUKA! With Alpha Bert's Bazooka, Letterman got blown away!

Hyundai YF Sonata and Kia K5 received the much awaited 2.0L Theta II L4 Turbo

2012 Hyundai Sonata F20 Turbo GDI


2012 Kia K5 T-GDI

The wait is over. Both the Hyundai YF Sonata (known in Australia as the i45) and the Kia K5 (known worldwide as the Optima) received the much awaited 2.0L Theta II 4-cylinder Turbo Gasoline Direct Injection (T-GDI) engine and yes, the new engine provide the power of a 3000cc engine with the 2000cc fuel economy. Need to repeat again? 2000cc fuel economy with 3000cc power.

Scoop:



Power output for the Theta II 2.0L Turbo GDI engine is 271PS while torque output is 37.2kg-m.

That's all I can say. Those two mind-numbing Korean executive medium sedans finally received what they've been waiting for; a turbocharged gasoline direct injection engine. This would be more exciting for the hardcore Korean car enthusiasts looking for some thrills after dark.

Heh, don't expect both the Sonata Turbo GDi and the Kia K5/Optima Turbo GDi come to the Philippines, yet...

And we're still waiting if HARI and CAC decided to bring the hybrid versions of the Sonata and K5/Optima.

What do you think?

Renaultsport Twingo - Forza 3 Owner's View

Citroen DS3 vs. Renault Sport Twingo


"Excuse me, Piccadilly please?"



FINAL IMPRESSIONS: Suppose you're cruising around town with your Renault Sport Twingo, you're finding someone to ask for directions, then that person you're asking for directions thinks you're French and that person tells directions in French. After you said "merci" (French for thank you), the person you asked for directions said "au voir!" (French for Bye Bye) and after that, she said "Get Lost!"

Looks like I better accept what that English woman said on the Renault Twingo Gordini advert because I got lost...

...in a middle of a game called Forza Motorsport 3 with me and the Renault Sport,

It maybe seem a decent French hot compact hatch but with the concept of "Petite Machine Furieusement Sportive" (French for Furiously Small Sports Machine), the Renault Sport Twingo has the agility of a sports car with the sizing of a compact city car. Perhaps few of them have one of these, they can modify it anything they want. Oh and one more thing, they can also make versions of the Renault Twingo Gordini R.S. because of the stripes and white spoiler.

It's fun to modify and decorate the Twingo Renault Sport but once you're behind the wheel, best to get out to someone before she says "Au Voir! Get Lost!" just like in the advert! (Laughing)

Au voir! Get lost!

The Renault Sport Twingo is the Forza Motorsport 3 Euro Hot Hatch "a la mode" is French.

Horse-power triumphs at Silverstone

It seems throttle regulations did hamper the success of both McLaren Mercedes and Red Bull Racing, in fact, a F1 team like Ferrari succeeded the Silverstone GP as Fernando Alonso from Ferrari landed on 1st place at Silverstone. S. Vettel lands 2nd place and Mark Webber lands 3rd place.

Scoop:

Expect the unexpected, even at the Nurburgring Grand Prix Circuit which comes this July 24!

GLK




I maybe a huge fan of Mercedes-Benz vehicles because of its "Elegance" concept that was applied in most models, but when I had an encounter with the crossover Benz known as the GLK-Class, heh, I wouldn't mind asking what will I say next...



That model shown was the GLK350 4MATIC and it was belong to my aunt Joji and uncle Ken. Perhaps about one-third of this car had options.




Didn't realize it was a 5-seater crossover but the interior of the GLK looks nice. The sunroof seems to be good but is it worth to be panoramic? There's even a tonneau board that once you cover it, it feels like a sedan, stow the tonneau board, and you got yourself a wagon-like interior. No wonder this was made to be the crossover of Mercedes-Benz.


So much to say that even when it picks fight against the BMW X1 and the upcoming Audi Q3, the Mercedes-Benz GLK-Class is one heck of a crossover most of us would love to indulge with. See ya!

Driving Music (What is the name of the song on car commercial?) Vol. 6

My blog was been rattled by some kind of earthquake with a magnitude of 3.7 on my exaggeration scale. Sorry for my nonsense but some intruder attacked my website once again! Gosh won't you please stop it? I'm sure that North Americans are highly notorious on finding songs heard on car commercials? Go ahead, Google Insights have proof and I don't think the attack between the music industry and the automotive community would never end. They would just continue it because finding music heard on car commercials is part of the automotive community. If that won't stop, the artists behind the songs will sue them for using their songs on certain car commercials that lead them to find that song illegally).

Better yet, another set of top 5 Driving Musics (songs from car commercials) is up to find it and either play it on your car audio or use it as a GT5 Personal BGM.

5) The song titled If Ever There's A Reason by Derby, where did you heard that song? Well, only from the 2011 Ford Explorer TV commercial of course. Need to say it? Hurry up and buy that song on iTunes!

4) The Renault Samsung SM3 debuted in September 2002. You watched that commercial before and you start asking this question; What is the name of the song on car commercial?
The song was Too Much Love Will Kill You and I'm talking about Queen who sang that song.

3) The BGM used on the Korean movie, Thirst, was used on a commercial for Kia's The Prestige K7. Titled Bach On Radio, this BGM was scored by Hong Yoo-Jin. Find it on Amazon.com!

2) The Nissan Juke debuted since June 2010. You watched the commercial, wanna know what was that song on the Nissan Juke commercial? This was titled Sunshine Of Your Love Juke Mix by Orianthi. Exclusively on Japanese versions of Orianthi's album titled Believe II.

1) The Hyundai Tucson iX debuted since August 2009. You saw the commercial and you asked "What is the name of the song on car commercial?" The answer is If You Seek Amy by Britney Spears.

Now that's a prize! Only a true car enthusiast can collect as much car commercial songs on his MP3 as possible!
