Yellow Toyota Belta cop car chases a white,
souped-up, JDM Toyota Chaser Tourer V on a
Minsan Lang Kita Iibigin episode!
I just notice something that a white, souped-up, Toyota Chaser 2.5 Tourer V has been spotted on last night's Minsan Lang Kita Iibigin episode.
This FR JDM Toyota sedan appeared when Javier (Coco Martin) and some punks at the bar escaping the cops driving yellow Toyota Belta cop cars. Wouldn't you believe all the drifting pulled by some bar punk?
Never seen that thing coming. How did that JDM Toyota Chaser Tourer V get there? What drifting techniques did this punk do? Whatever the heck it is, the old Chaser looks cool.
On the 30th anniversary issue of Animedia, this magazine listed the top 30 anime characters separated by male and female. Looking at the top 30 female anime characters, 5 of the K-On girls made it on the top 30! It's like every magazine in Japan that has every K-ON character made it on the top spots.

Yui Hirasawa was in 1st place, Azusa Nakano lands 2nd, Ritsu Tainaka in 4th, Mio Akiyama in 5th, and Tsumugi Kotobuki in the 30th place!
1, 2, 4, 5, 30! This makes it a perfect lotto combination except for one more.
If I am picking for a 6-number lotto combination, it would be a 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 30 and why 3? December 3 of course. December 3, 2011 was the date the K-ON movie is slated to show in Japanese theaters, making it a perfect pre-Christmas treat.
It's 2011. Wonder where the Durango's been for the last 2 years? That was the question from the Dodge Durango commercial. Now, the all new 2011 Dodge Durango is now in the Philippines via CATS Motors and this exclusive distributor finally accepted the new Dodge logo!
I don't know if that one is the North America version or a Dubai version (because we often got a load of Dubai version SUVs due to its full options) but the Dodge Durango offers only the Pentastar 3.6L V6 engine and a 5-speed automatic transmission. The all new 2011 Durango costs 3.78 million Philippine pesos. If you are a wealthy politician or a celebrity, consider the new Durango your new personal ride to the Metro Manila.
A decent rival to the upcoming Ford Explorer, Toyota Land Cruiser 200, or especially the Nissan Patrol Royale! Good thing it's a Dubai Version Durango! (shrug) (￣▽￣)
Why Dubai version? Full options of course! If I am rich, I would get my hands on the new Durango since its 2-year absence!
The third-generation Mazda Demio (Mazda 2), launched since July 2007, is now a world-proven compact car that is already proven to take on the world. Europe has one, America has one, Africans has one, Australians has one, Asians (especially in the Philippines) has one, the whole world has one because the Mazda Demio is a fuel efficient compact car that takes places. Last year, the Mazda Demio received minor changes worldwide except Japan where the pre-MC model takes place until late June 2011. This late June 2011, Japan will witness the big minor change on the third-generation Mazda Demio and now it is the first Mazda to be ever equipped with the new SKYACTIV Technology!
What is SKYACTIV Technology?
Part of Mazda's vision to create a perfect harmony between ecology of the hybrid car and the performance of the gasoline-powered car, the term SKYACTIV was born. The SKYACTIV technology provides driving pleasure and outstanding eco-friendly and safely performance to customers with the fuel efficient engines, efficient transmissions, and "lighter and rigid" platforms. To learn more about SKYACTIV, visit http://www.mazda.com/mazdaspirit/skyactiv/
MAZDA DEMIO 13-SKYACTIV (DBA-DEJFS)
Mazda P3-VPS engine
The new 2012 Mazda Demio is the first Mazda to be equipped with the all new P3-VPS (1.3-litre SKYACTIV-G) engine. The new SKYACTIV-G engine is the next generation of Gasoline Direct Injection (GDI) engine that is the first to attain the world's highest petrol engine compression ratio of 14.0:1, 15% increase of fuel efficiency and torque, and a 4-2-1 exhaust system, cavity pistons, multihole injectors and some of the technology that makes SKYACTIV "Only the sky is the limit" after all. The Mazda Demio 13-SKYACTIV provides 84ps/5400rpm of power, 11.4kg-m/4000rpm of torque, and the fuel economy of 30km/L (10-15 mode). With that, the new Mazda Demio SKYACTIV is the reigning "king" of fuel efficiency, dethroning the 27.0km/L cars like the fifth-generation Daihatsu Move and the third-generation Suzuki MR Wagon!
SKYACTIV i-STOP
Good to know that Mazda's i-stop feature found on the second-generation Axela/3 and the third-generation Mazda Premacy/5 is included at the Mazda Demio/2 13-SKYACTIV model. With i-stop equipped, it will automatically shut-off the P3-VPS (1.3L DOHC SKYACTIV-G) engine when stopped at the red light. Also included is the CVT for enhanced fuel efficiency, good for those who want to take a long Japanese trip this summer.
i-DM (Intelligent Drive Master)
2012 Mazda Demio i-DM (Intelligent Drive Master)
To determine how good you master the 2012 Mazda Demio 13-SKYACTIV, a new i-DM (Intelligent Drive Master) is added to the right of the tachometer. The i-DM determines the skill level, fuel economy, stats, and miscellaneous stuff while driving the Mazda Demio 13-SKYACTIV. It shows how good you used the SKYACTIV-powered Demio at various aspects.
Other Choices
Aside from the 13-SKYACTIV variant, the new Demio still offers non-SKYACTIV variants like the 13C 5MT, 13C EC-AT, 13C-V (with CVT), 13C with e-4WD, 15C 5MT, 15C EC-AT, and the Demio Sport that has a 1.5L DOHC engine and it comes with either a 5-speed manual or a CVT with a 7-speed manual mode. Available colors are Crystal White Pearl Mica, Sunlight Silver Metallic, Aluminum Metallic, Ice Blue Metallic, Spirited Green Metallic, True Red, Radiant Ebony Mica, Metropolitan Gray Mica, and Brilliant Black, with the addition of two new colors such as Burgundy Red Mica and Aquatic Blue Mica (13-SKYACTIV exclusive color).
My Comment:
The third-generation, world-proven, Mazda Demio is now gaining its new face and a new SKYACTIV-G engine that is truly meant to say "only the sky is the limit" once and for all. The next generation GDi engine provides exceptional fuel economy and performance, perfect for the long trip ahead. This is the ultimate in eco-car history.
Question is: When will the new SKYACTIV-G engine reach the Philippines? If Anika Salceda-Wycoco, Ford Group Philippines assistant vice president for communications, read this, she will reply with this; NOT YET AND WE ARE STILL UNDECIDED WHEN WE WILL BRING MAZDA'S SKYACTIV ENGINE TO THE PHILIPPINES. orz
One more thing in my opinion, I think the SKYACTIV engines are too dirty to handle the Philippines' own dirty fuel. I hope the government revise about clean gasoline and if that, there will be chance for Filipinos to witness SKYACTIV.

ANG TV PATROL TEXT JOKE OF THE DAY:
Sabi ni Misis: Lolokohin ko ang mister ko kunwari isa akong call girl!
Nakita ni Misis si Mister.
Sabi niya: Hello pogi, pwede ka ba ngayon?
Sagot si Mister: Ayoko nga sayo. Kamukha mo misis ko.

Final Impressions: Wow, even in the Forza Motorsport franchise, there really was such thing as "The Battle of IS" after all because of the 2003 Lexus IS300, 2006 Lexus IS350, and the 2009 Lexus IS F. But first, I have to tackle first of my favorite IS, which is the ISF.
Before I explain that, just how did I fell in love with the IS name? Don't ask me. I know why because IS stands for "Infinite Stratos" but I am not accepting that answer why I got loco over the Lexus IS naming. Considering it a high-performance super saloon, the Lexus ISF can be somewhat a good car but decorating it can be a total eyesore especially the metallic paint job. At least I am laughing why I would turn my heads over this.
It maybe new, but the Lexus IS F shows some signs of improvement. However, it is not merely popular among Forza owners but I'm sure they'll figure it out how to perfect the ISF's tuning and decoration with precision. Wield Precision!
If you recalled that in March 10, 2011, Suzuki launched the Idling Stop variant for the 2012 MR Wagon, launched since January 2011, well ladies and gentlemen, it seems that the 2012 Nissan Moco followed suit as it received its idling stop function, making it the fifth member of the Nissan Pure Drive range!
As the 5th member of the Nissan Pure Drive range, the 2012 Nissan Moco X Idling Stop grade provides the wondrous idle stop and go feature that brings the 2012 Moco's R06A engine (a new 660cc engine developed by Suzuki Motor Corporation) to a complete stop when stationary. With that, the fuel efficiency is a record breaking 27.0km/L. This is Nissan's TNP27 or should we say "トマール猿人" for sure? (Laughing)
(we're still waiting for Subaru when will the Stella Custom be equipped with the turbocharged RS variant!)
Back in 2006, Kia aired a hilarious Thai TV Commercial for the Kia KC2700 Truck and the main character was a cross-breed dog-horse. His name is Jumbo. He's half dachshund dog and half horse. You can't believe how hilarious this ad was. When the farmer scolded the dog-horse, the dog-horse dragged the farmer all the way to the big city to see the Kia KC2700 Jumbo Pickup because of the truck's long back. That's as long as the dog-horse's long back. LOL
The date was June 5, 2011. The place is Yokohama, Kanagawa, Japan. The weather seems to be partially sunny or cloudy. There are two things happening at Yokohama; there are GUNS and there are ROSES. I was just exaggerating about the whole GUNS AND ROSES thing because there are two things happened on that date in Yokohama. One which is the COOL side and the other one is the CUTE side. First off, let's start with something at the COOL side.
The COOL side was, the Red Bull Formula One car appeared for the first time at Japan for the RED BULL ENERGY FOR JAPAN. Despite the accident on June 4 at the Makuhari Messe, spectators at the Yokohama Motomachi Shopping Street are gathered to see the Red Bull F1 car burning rubber at the streets of Yokohama and a motorcade with Toro Rosso driver Sebastien Buemi are here. In the motorcade, there was two Infinitis and two Renaults. There was a Infiniti M Hybrid (Nissan Fuga Hybrid), second-generation Infiniti FX, Renault Megane RS 250, and for the first time in Japan, the Renault Wind roadster. The Renault Wind roadster was on sale in Europe since Summer last year and it is slated to be on sale in Japan this summer. I'm glad most Japanese Red Bull fans got winged up for the coolest charity event held by Red Bull. Red Bull Energy For Japan provides enjoyment and encouragement for Japan, which was fallen victim from the 3.11 disasters.

The RED BULL ENERGY FOR JAPAN is considered cool and listed on the "GUNS" side. What about something from the "ROSES" side? Oh yes. The Infinite Stratos One Off Festival held at Yokohama BLITZ!
Infinite Stratos One-Off Festival
Whoever had the special ticket found on the Infinite Stratos DVD and Blu-Ray Vol. 1 Limited Edition got invited to the special one-day only event for saying thanks for supporting the anime series based on the best-seller novel, Infinite Stratos (日本名：インフィニットストラトス). Outside the event, a Super Taikyu Honda S2000 with Infinite Stratos livery (about 90% repaired after a crash at a Super Taikyu race) was exhibited. Inside, they were greeted by the stars of Infinite Stratos. Kouki Uchiyama as Ichika Orimura, Yoko Hikasa as Houki Shinonono, Yukana as Cecilia Alcott, Asami Shimoda as Huang Ling Yin or Fan Rinin, Kana Hanazawa as Charlotte "Charles" Dunois, and Marina Inoue as Laura Bodewig are here and special appearance by Minami Kuribayashi who sang the opening theme song STRAIGHT JET. In the concert, it has free talks, music and more.
Which reminds me, Houki's character song from IS DVD/Blu-Ray Vol. 1 Limited Edition, titled 紅く、紅く, and Cecilia's character song from IS DVD/Blu-Ray Vol. 2 Limited Edition, titled Noble Heart, was featured and by interest, Huang Ling Yin's song titled 好吃スマイル (coming at IS DVD/Blu-Ray Vol. 3 Limited Edition), Charlotte's song titled mon cherie, ma cherie, and Laura's song titled An die Freude made a world premiere at the IS One Off Festival. As expected, Huang Ling Yin's song will be on IS DVD/Blu-Ray Vol. 3 Limited Edition but I'm guessing that Charlotte's song would be on Vol. 4 while Laura's song would be at Vol. 5, my guess.
Also announced at the event is the special Infinite Stratos Encore OVA coming to DVD and Blu-Ray this Fall!
The special IS OVA will be released this late November while the IS One Off Festival DVD and Blu-Ray will arrive this late October! Want one?
And that's what the GUNS AND ROSES happened at Yokohama since June 5, 2011. What's the most memorable happening?
Ahead from the E3 2011 world premiere, Sony unveiled the Playstation Vita, the next generation portable gaming system that follows the footsteps of the Playstation Portable.
Check out the video:
Those cool new features really wow us.
With the release date remain unknown for now, the special preview takes place at the E3 2011 this June 7 to 9.
