LFA vs. IS F in "Cecilia Alcott" territory

Lexus LFA vs. Lexus IS F
in Bruntingthorpe

Sorry for the irony on the title why I called it "Cecilia Alcott" territory because the Lexus LFA in Pearl Blue and the Lexus IS F wearing "Blue Tears" colors (whoops, another irony) showing off their skills at Bruntingthorpe, UK. (Oh, that's why you called it "Cecilia Alcott territory" because of that darn Brit chick from IS!)

You know what, I'm not going to talk about this thing. I'll just leave it to my special guest, please welcome the IS School student from Britain and a representative cadet, Ms. Cecilia Alcott (セシリア・オルコット). Guess she'll do the talking for me while I'm taking a rest. orz

Cecilia Alcott from
Infinite Stratos

 (British accent) Hello ladies and gents, my name is Cecilia Alcott, British representative cadet from the Infinite Stratos School. Thank you for seeing me on IS (Infinite Stratos) for after twelve episodes. Guess someone told my name on an article about something IS. He told me about a video that a Lexus IS F wearing the color of my Infinite Stratos known as "Blue Tears" clashing against a Pearl Blue Lexus LFA. Well, I'm not kind of familiar about the Lexus LFA because I don't know what this car is but I'm fairly familiar about the Lexus IS F because 'that' is 'my' kind of IS.

Of course I saw those two Lexus cars racing in my British homeland, which these two are racing through the Bruntingthorpe Proving Grounds. When I saw the blue Lexus IS F races against the Lexus LFA, I thought the IS F will win because of the 8-speed Sport Direct Shift but the Lexus LFA's V10 engine (1LR-GUE) is highly powerful against the Lexus IS F, which is equipped with the 2UR-GSE (5.0L V8) engine and 8-speed SPDS (Sport Direct Shift) transmission. It's a shame watching my "Blue Tears" beaten by a V10-equipped super car. (Sigh)

Despite that, I'm happy to see those two Lexus F models comparing each other. Seeing these two Japan-made vehicles racing on my territory, I mean, at the Bruntingthorpe Proving Grounds, made me happy that my "Blue Tears" is proven to be a good one, despite its loss by the Lexus LFA.

As I heard, the Lexus IS F is the founding father of Lexus' F marque, designed to target the likelihood of Audi's S and RS models, Mercedes-Benz's AMG, and BMW M Power. The limited edition LFA is just a one of a kind super car built by a Japanese car manufacturer. I'm glad that Toyota Motor Corporation made a really good job creating these two sports cars targeted for the elite.

It was nice to meet you all IS* fans. Until then, I'll see you soon. Bye, now!

*I think Cecilia doesn't refer to either fans of Infinite Stratos or fans of the Lexus IS line. LOL

1) Bringing a garbage bag with you when you encounter a litter

Picking up the trash

Ang TV Patrol text joke of the day:

Sabi ng anak: Nay, bakit po Victoria pangalan ni Ate?

Sagot si Nanay: E kase dun namin siya ginawa ng tatay nyo!

Tanong uli si anak: Ahhh, eh bakit si Kuya Anito?

Sagot si Nanay: Tumigil ka na nga Luneta, hala tawagin mo si Kuya FX mo!

3,567 Banana Split viewers agreed to this joke while 24 viewers are unhappy. According to Jason Francisco, those 24 viewers who are unhappy were the kids whose names were Luneta and FX!

Superamerica 45 - The third Ferrari under the Special Projects portfolio

In 2008, Ferrari revived the Special Projects program, a program dedicated to create a one-off special Ferrari for the very special clients or VIPs. The first is the Ferrari SP1, a F430-based special Ferrari designed exclusively for Mr. Junichiro Hiramatsu, the chairman of a very famous Ferrari club in Japan and an avid collector of everything Ferrari.

Later on, in 2010, the second Ferrari under the Special Projects portfolio is the P540 Superfast Aperta, a special Ferrari based on the 599 GTB Fiorano for a special client named Edward Walson, the son of John Walson who invented cable TV.

2010 Ferrari P540 Superfast Aperta

Now, in 2011, Ferrari created the third special Ferrari under the Special Projects programmed and this one is heavily based on the Ferrari 599 (the same as the Superfast Aperta). It was unveiled ahead on the Villa d’Este Concours d’Eleganza (Concours d'Elegance) in Italy and made for a wealthy playboy in New York, avid collector (just like Junichiro Hiramatsu), and the former owner of the New York Post, Peter Kalikow.

Scoop: http://carscoop.blogspot.com/2011/05/ferrari-unveils-new-superamerica-45.html

It might seem to be based on the 599 but it was heavily based on the limited model Ferrari SA APERTA. Mr. Peter Kalikow's excited to see his very own Ferrari and most of the Ferrari owners will get jealous. Peter Kalikow's the third special client since Junichiro Hiramatsu and Edward Walson to ask Ferrari to create their own special Ferrari models under the Special Projects portfolio. We're getting jealous....

Toyota Sienta Phase III and Sienta DICE

2012 Toyota Sienta

In September 29, 2003, Toyota released the Japan-only compact 2BOX minivan, the Sienta, targeted for simple Japanese families looking for a practical compact carrier for their everyday lives. It followed with a minor change on May 16, 2006 that features a much bubblier design. Unfortunately on August 2010, Toyota cease to produce the Sienta because of the low demand or poor sales. However, on May 19, 2011, the Sienta is back with its second minor change, and labeled as "Type III", which means the Sienta is now on its third phase. With production made possible from Daihatsu, the Toyota Sienta is back and this time, it spawned into two kinds such as the standard Sienta and the squarish Sienta DICE.

The standard Sienta carries the Phase II look but offered a new round front lamps, new grille, new bumper, and a redesigned rear. The new Sienta DICE offers a smiling grille, squarish headlamps, sporty front bumper, and some chrome lamps attached at the rear. The Sienta DICE is targeted for those who are in sense of style.

On the interior, nothing's changed from the previous two phases. What's included is the plasma cluster switch that allows clean air to come through the Sienta's interior, providing a clean atmosphere and a sense of purity. For added utility, a deck under tray is included that matches your hectic lifestyles. The Sienta and Sienta DICE is made for people who are undergoing different lifestyles.

2012 Toyota Sienta DICE

Both the Sienta and the Sienta DICE are offered with the standard 1NZ-FE VVT-i engine with the improved fuel economy of 19.2km/L in 10-15 Mode and 17.2km/L in JC08 Mode. The power output is 110PS/6,000r.p.m. and the torque output of 14.4kgf・m/4,400r.p.m. If armed with the optional 4WD, power and torque output will slightly decrease. 2WD variants are equipped with the Super CVT while 4WD variants have 4-speed Super ECT. It's up to you.

My Comment:
Thanks to Daihatsu, the Sienta is back for its third phase and this time, it spawned a stylish addition, the Sienta DICE, that features squarish headlamps, sporty front bumper, and targeted for the sense of style. The standard Sienta is made for simple drivers while the Sienta DICE is targeted for the stylish. Don't rush over these yet because both the new Sienta and the Sienta DICE are slated for June 13 sale across all Corolla dealerships and oh, expect delay of delivers. orz
