Mitsubishi to stop producing cars from Europe

2013 Mitsubishi Mirage


We have some breaking news that the European subsidiary of Mitsubishi Motors Corporation said that they will end production of Euro-spec Mitsubishi vehicles by around 2013 as it shifts its focus to emerging markets.

Firstly, they will sell their European subsidiary plant, NedCar, which is located at Holland. How? We don't know but Mitsubishi will enter into negotiations with labor unions and the Dutch Government to sell the NedCar plant, which employed over a thousand workers.

Too bad though that Mitsubishi saw no future profits in Europe.

My SB46 final impressions...

2012 Acura NSX Concept


First and foremost, I was gonna say congratulations to the New York Giants for a spectacular fight against the New England Patriots. This Super Bowl XLVI battle is one heck of a moment to remember. Best Super Bowl ever seen and wow. Those commercials they aired are just purely random.

Those ads they've aired were David Beckham endorses some underwear, Cadillac ATS at the Nurburgring, M&M's, the introduction of the new Bud Light Platinum, how can a Century 21 agent do, a truck that can survive a massive hit, happy grad, a Veloster Turbo against a cheetah, Audi S7 trashed the vampire party, reinvented stuff, Clint Eastwood's message to America that it's halftime, 2013MY Genesis Coupe's Think Fast commercial, dogs and babies rule the Doritos ads, a dog that can wear Sketchers,  gathering of our favorite childhood cartoon characters for the MetLife ad, montage of Chevy Sonic's stunts, how Bridgestone applied their technology in the world of basketball and football, the "Free To Pee" commercial (weird), a dog exercises so he can chase the new VW Beetle, Coke Polar Bear Shareable Moments, Pepsi King's Court ad, a Coke Zero guy became the millionth Pepsi Max customer, Matthew's Day Off with the new CR-V and my personal favorite, Jerry Seinfeld tries to get his hands on the Acura NSX Concept until it was foiled by Jay Leno's.



Yes, they were all random stuff but of all the ads, I think the Acura's Transactions Big Game ad was the best ad I have ever seen. I bet this would be more fun than last year's Lil Vader ad from Volkswagen. Anyway, I really love the Big Game ads from the SB46 and lest we forget the silliness from these ads.

Ugh. I'm getting dizzy right now. Getting dizzy from those random Super Bowl ads and Madonna's halftime show concert. See ya...

The Run of Diablo SV

Lamborghini Diablo SV


Name: Lamborghini Diablo SV

Nationality: Italian

Top Speed: 200MPH

0-60 Time: 4.1 seconds

BHP: 510 @ 7,100 RPM

Performance: Tier 4

Handling: Challenging

Class: Exotic

Drivetrain: RWD

Manufacture Year: 1995

Description:
Launched in the 1995 Geneva Motor Show, the Diablo SV revived the Super Veloce naming from the Miura SV and this is known to be the entry-level version of the legendary Lamborghini Diablo. Because this car doesn't have AWD, the power of the 510HP engine can't keep up with the Traction, making it riskier to handling the Diablo SV. Notable features from the Diablo SV includes an adjustable rear spoiler, black tail lamp surrounds, repositioned rear fog and reverse lamps, extra set of brake cooling ducts, ducted engine lid, and optional SV vinyls.

Back in 1998, Lamborghini launched the Diablo SV Monterey Edition, which is a limited run to 20 units available exclusively at the United States.

The Lamborghini Diablo SV is part of the all new Need For Speed THE RUN Italian Edition Pack, available now at either PlaystationStore or XBOX Marketplace. Return to THE RUN and try it.

The Run of Gallardo Superleggera

Lamborghini Gallardo LP570-4 Superleggera


Name: Lamborghini Gallardo LP570-4 Superleggera

Nationality: Italian

Top Speed: 193 MPH

0-60 Time: 3.4s

BHP: 542 @ 8000 RPM

Performance: Tier 4

Handling: Easy

Class: Exotic

Drivetrain: AWD

Manufacture Year: 2010

Description:
The first Gallardo Superleggera came out in the 2007 Geneva Motor Show and it was a tribute to the first Lamborghini production model, the 350GT. However, despite that Superleggera is Italian for "Super Light", this model doesn't have a super light constructed body. What the original Superleggera has an improved engine intake, sports exhaust, and an ECU, generating 523HP of power. Production began in mid-2007 and up to early 2008, totaling 172 units built. Two years later, the Superleggera name has been reborn and it was based on the Lamborghini Gallardo LP570-4. The new Gallardo Superleggera uses carbon fiber inside and out, providing 2,954lbs of weight, making this the lightest Lamborghini ever built for the enthusiast.

The V10 engine on the Gallardo Superleggera produces 542BHP of power and it can do 0-60 in 3.4 seconds, that is faster than the Lamborghini Gallardo Balboni.

This car is part of the all new Need For Speed THE RUN Italian Edition Pack, available now at either PlaystationStore or XBOX Marketplace. Take advantage of its lightweight body! Seems that bully's gone for a diet!

Stig's Chinese cousin inspires T-Shirt

Kung Fu STIG


In one part of Top Gear Series 18 Episode 2, Jeremy Clarkson and James May went to China to explore more about Chinese cars and we got even introduced to The Stig's Chinese Cousin. He may look like The Stig but he sure knows how to KUNG FU! Wait, what? The Stig who can do Kung Fu? Whoa there! At least, that's The Stig's Chinese Cousin.

Seems that whole Chinese Stig gig really inspired an official "KUNG FU STIG" T-Shirt. Prices start at 17.45 British Pounds Sterling (VAT included) (estimated P1,200) for all sizes. Come check this out.

Subaru pitches in Meisa Kuroki for the BRZ's TV commercial

2013 Subaru BRZ meets Meisa Kuroki


Well, I can't believe it. In case you haven't know, Subaru pitches in Japanese actress, Meisa Kuroki, as the endorser for the new BRZ sports coupe. You may probably remember Meisa Kuroki from last year's Andalusia movie and from the Japanese Nestle Kit Kat commercial but you wouldn't believe she really fits her personality with this car.

The Subaru BRZ was released last week and it is scheduled to go on sale at the end of March 2012. This is the first rear-wheel drive sports coupe in joint agreement with Toyota Motor Corporation. This is the TOYOTA 86 with the Pleiades' point of view. The BRZ naming implies as "Boxer Rear-Wheel-Drive Zenith".
