2011 Citroen Tubik Concept

Oh my...

The Citroen Tubik Concept, to be unveiled at Frankfurt Motor Show this month, showcases the future of the Citroen TUB van. It is part of Citroen's Multicity Project that shows the future of mobility.

Could the Tubik concept hints us the future of Citroen commercial vans or is it just for explanations. For me, one look of the Tubik concept's face looks like a gas mask. (Laugh). I can almost imagining why would Citroen made such a odd-looking concept car that shows the future of mobility...

Dubai Version Raptor - 6 doors!

Now that's insane! Dubai Version Ford F-150 SVT Raptor gets six doors! I don't know who's responsible with this insane modification but this is one heck of a Raptor we're dreaming to see. Because this is Dubai Version, we can only see this kind on United Arab Emirates (UAE).

I'm impressed....

"Surf 5 in 1" vs. "Bonux 3 in 1"

I should notice about one product that Ogie Alcasid tweeted to his followers on twitter saying:

"Bonux 3 in 1 panglaba! Available nabat 5 pesos Lang!"

It was like what was that? Until I saw this ad...

It's a new product launched from Procter & Gamble Philippines and this product fuses the uses of bleach, powder, and fabric conditioner. This product was guaranteed to keep clothes smell fresh and clean. It's like you're using all three (bleach, powder, and fabric conditioner) in one item! The suggested retail price is 5 pesos, guaranteed for the housewives to buy this one at their nearest sari-sari store!

However, there was one thing which is claimed to be much better than "Bonux 3 in 1" because this is 5-in-1 and it's from Unilever Philippines. This is Surf 5-in-1...oh wait it's a fabric conditioner...

Becuase it's a fabric conditioner, it only focused on softening clothes and making it fresh but because Surf 5-in-1 fabric conditioner now has "Fragrance Capsules", it releases longer lasting fragrance in your clothes. If I think it's "5-in-1", I might think that this is super effective than the new "Bonux 3 in 1".

I'm confused... If 5-in-1 is better than 3-in-1, is Surf definitely better than Bonux?

Zonda R - The ultimate Zonda ever made...

Song played on my Personal BGM: Zombie by The Cranberries

From the album: No Need to Argue

The Phantom of the Shutokou

This is known to be the ultimate Zonda ever built for circuit racing purposes only. It was the kind of Zonda that can accumulate at top speed of 350km/h, 0-100km/h in 2.7 seconds, and it achieved a Nurburgring Nordschelife in 6:47.50, making it the fastest of the non-series/road-legal vehicles attempted. This is the Pagani Zonda R, the ultimate Pagani Zonda ever built.

The Zonda R rattles the expressway

When I first laid my eyes on the Pagani Zonda R, it was like that it was the most wonderful machine I have ever encountered. Upon hearing the engine start, this was a complete madman. I definitely want to hear the engine start of the Zonda R again and again until I pass out. Anyway, the Zonda R is a carbon-fiber bodied car that weighs to an impressive 1070kg, a reputation that this should have been gained the title of "SUPERLEGGERA" of non-series/road-legal vehicles but forget about it. The Zonda R is powered by a 6.0 L AMG V12 engine found in the Mercedes-Benz CLK-GTR, which produces 740HP of power, 523ft-lb of torque, top speed of 350km/h, 0-100km/h in 2.7 seconds, and it achieved a Nurburgring Nordschelife in 6:47.50. We sure know that watching some car magazine shows like Top Gear and Fifth Gear really payed off about the ferocious power of the Zonda R.

Here in Gran Turismo 5, you are seeking it as an enemy but once you have the Zonda R in your hands, you seek to this car as an ally. For that, you can upgrade the Zonda R's 6.0L AMG V12 engine to a maximum power of 815HP just by buying the High RPM Range Turbo Kit. It's up to you to decide which Suspension setting fits best on the Zonda R. The right suspension setting leads to greater cornering and greater lap times.

Attempting for the Nurburgring official record

Whoever owns the Zonda R on GT5 are often willing to show off their manly lap record that is on par against the Zonda R official record at the Nurburgring but this is just for fun. When the Zonda R's traction control is off, this one's extremely hard to control, even the launch is simply hard to handle. It takes practice and once you have the edge, you'll learn how to take advantage of the Zonda R's true self without the driving aids.

The Pagani Zonda R's Japan arrival

Patience is a virtue for those who have the keys to the Zonda R but if they want to take a break after rigorous battles, they can bring it outside for Photo Travel since the Zonda R is a Premium Tier car that costs 2,600,000 Credits and requires an A-Spec/B-Spec level of 23. This race car is all about respect. Once you're pushing to the limit, you'll never resist the temptation of speed. You should be happy about the way the Pagani Zonda R behaves but this car has limitations. Players online should know that once they looked at your Zonda R, they'll have some choices to make. Will they welcome you or not? That is the question only your mind can answer.

2012 Honda Insight

Well, it had to happen. After being on the market for about two years since its debut on February 2009, the Honda Insight (Honda Green Machine 001) will get its first minor change and its slated to debut on this month's Frankfurt Motor Show.

PRESS RELEASE:

96 g/km* for the 2012 Honda Insight

The launch of the 2012 Honda Insight at Frankfurt Motor Show (IAA) 2011 in September reaffirms Honda's commitment to reducing CO2 emissions.

The 2012 Insight is now even more environmentally friendly producing just 96 g/km* of CO2. Fuel economy and emissions have been improved by means of enhanced aerodynamics and powertrain efficiency. Reduced engine friction , Continuous Variable Transmission (CVT) and better air conditioning, benefiting from a new cold storage system, all contribute to lower fuel consumption.

The Insight also receives a fresh exterior design including a new front grille. The slimmed tail spolier allows for a wider rear glass area, and combining this with a modified tail gate garnish and a reduction in the size of the wiper motor unit results in overall increased rear visibility.

Adjustments have been made to the engine and suspension for an overall improvement to ride comfort and stability. The features within the interior have also been enhanced for a superior quality.

More details will be announced at launch.

There is a rumor that the Insight minor change will get a LEA-MF6 (1.5L SOHC i-VTEC) engine which was equipped on the Honda CR-Z and this will be labeled as "Insight Exclusive". A certain Minkara blogger told that when he was at some Honda dealership...

If his rumors are true, there will be such thing as a Insight Exclusive (インサイト・エクスクルーシブ).
