You can't have this M3 (but you can do this on GT5)

BMW M3 Showcar "Chrome Bullet"


This is no ordinary M3 at its first glance because this kind of M3 was colored in "Chrome Silver", calling this the BMW M3 Showcar Chrome Bullet.

No, you can't have this kind of M3 but you can do this on Gran Turismo 5. If you have a "Chrome Silver" in your color collection and if you have a BMW M3 E92 in your garage, try and paint with this.

Check out the gallery:

Is this the 2012 JDM Subaru Impreza?

The 2012 all-new Subaru Impreza already made its world premiere at the 2011 New York Auto Show but a certain Minkara blogger leaked some photos that what it claimed to be the all new, fourth-generation, Subaru Impreza. The exterior and interior details look somewhat similar to the ones shown at the New York Auto Show.



For the Japan-spec 4G IMPREZA, the hatchback model will be labeled as IMPREZA SPORT (スバル・インプレッサスポーツ) while the 4-door sedan model will be labeled as IMPREZA G4 (スバル・インプレッサG4).

G4? R U KIDDING ME? OWWS? HINDI NGA?! Whoa there. Looks like the Impreza G4 is what's too similar to the Legacy B4. Previous Impreza sedan was called Impreza Anesis but for the 4th generation Impreza sedan, it is called G4? Impreza G4? Geez...

Also, the new Impreza will be powered with two newly developed FB boxer engine. One is the all-new FB16 engine that produces 114PS of power and 150Nm of torque while the FB20 engine (as seen on the Forester), produces 150PS of power and 196Nm of torque. Available transmission variants will be a Lineartronic CVT or a 5-speed Manual transmission, depending on the variant.

It will also have Eyesight (アイサイト) system as well too. This system can discern other vehicles, pedestrians, and cyclists using twin cameras. It can also adapt automatic braking too just like the naughty Volvo S60. Looks like both the new "Impreza Sport" and the "Impreza G4" are going to be naughty.

Both the new Impreza Sport and the new Impreza G4 will be making a premiere next month with sales commence this late December 2011, some sources say.

2011 - Let's celebrate the World Champ

Let's Celebrate the World Champion!


The Japanese GP held at Suzuka Circuit became historical. For a man like Sebastian Vettel, he needs one last point to defend his title but he successfully got 15 points (when he landed 3rd place). With the score of 324 points, Sebastian Vettel was once again defending his title as F1 Champion. Japanese GP winner, Jenson Button from McLaren-Mercedes now has 210 points.


And for something special because S. Vettel defended his crown as the "World Champion", Gran Turismo 5 has a double treat for the players for a limited time. Beginning now up until October 16, 2011 23:59 Japan Standard Time, players can take part of the Sebastian Vettel F1 2011 World Champion Celebration Event, where they can race against the clock with the Gran Turismo Red Bull X2010 S. Vettel at Suzuka Circuit, the venue where S. Vettel was reigned as F1 2011 World Champ. Go for Gold and you'll get all the cash prizes totaling to Cr.5,000,000! 

The Gran Turismo Red Bull X2010 S. Vettel can now be yours once you start up the game and logged in to your PSN account. If you don't have the X2010 S. Vettel, then this is good news for you but for those who already have one, keep it as a souvenir. This bonus is valid until October 16 and you can receive this prize only once.

R U KIDDING ME? VXR8 GTS wins MPG Marathon! Owws? Hindi Nga?!

2011 Vauxhall VXR8 GTS


You might think that hybrids and diesels always win the Fleet World MPG Marathon, but chances are that you are wrong. On the Fleet World MPG Marathon, the Vauxhall VXR8 GTS emerged as the champion on this kind of fuel consumption battle.

R U KIDDING ME? Owws? Hindi Nga?!

The Vauxhall VXR8 GTS, British version of the HSV GTS, emerged victorious on the two-day, 350 mile fuel consumption battle but how? This Vauxhall VXR8 GTS was driven by Top Gear online editor, Chris Mooney, along with Vauxhall archivist and eco-driving expert, Andrew Duerden.

The VXR8 GTS's fuel consumption is 7.4km/L (21.0 MPG UK) but Mooney managed to improve it even further by 53%, resulting to 11.4km/L (32.14 MPG UK)!

Looks like there is a lesson learned that fuel economy is not relied on the car itself but for the driver himself that makes the difference, whichever comes first...

The Biggest Loser Pinoy Edition Wellness Fair kicked off yesterday at the Ynares Sports Arena. There are fun, games, and seminars galore to promote healthy living and weight loss. It also served as the biggest stage for the Grand Finals of The Biggest Loser Pinoy Edition. The best five contestants were Hazel Chua, Angela Chico-Lupangco, Raffy Tan, Art Mendoza, and Larry Martin. These five went through rigorous lives, losing their weights and changing their lives.
