Cars GT6 Should Put (Volume 17)

In a galaxy far far away, just off our backyard, lies Leopaul's Blog; boldly pushing the boundaries of car culture because there's some CARS GT6 SHOULD PUT.



Cars like...

1) Ascari KZ1 '03

WHY: The Ascari Race Resort is now included in the list of racetracks you can race on GT6 but what about the cars from Ascari? Don't say that they forgot about the cars themselves! How about one of Ascari's boutique supercars only a few people would know? This is the Ascari KZ1, a British-made supercar that costs 235,000 Pounds and it's capable to reach the supercar Holy Grail of 200mph. It may have an engine from the old BMW M5 but the KZ1 has the credentials of a supercar. It drives like one, it handles like one, and overall...this is worth promising.

2) Ascari A10 '07

WHY: It maybe more of a track-day weapon but the A10 from Ascari is road legal, meaning you can use it on a day-to-day basis. The M5 engine that powers it has been uprooted to 625HP of power and it weighs around 1200kg because of carbon-fiber bodywork. The Ascari A10 is by far out one of our favorite supercars probably because it appeared on Top Gear a few years ago. Hopefully, PD should feature the best Ascari in this game and since we got the Ascari track, maybe we can give this one a spin round its home course.

3) Volkswagen Golf VII GTi '13

WHY: The official GT6 car list is lacking probably because of those pointless "Base Model" race cars and this list has been accused for not having the latest models out in the market today. How come they keep forgetting about the latest cars in the market today especially with the latest Golf VII GTi? If that new model showed up on GT6, this would be more fun when we drive the latest GTi hot hatch. Come on, wake up! There are new cars in the market that would need the GT6 treatment!

4) Peugeot 308 Feline 1.6 THP '13

Despite keeping the same name from the original, the new 308 is now one of the most promising city cars of the year because of its tasteful looks, new engines, new interior, and cutting-edge technology. It's also one of the hatchbacks I really want to drive and because I like this one rather than playing with the old 308 XSi from the previous installments, I just hope that PD has room for the new 308 just for keeps.

5) Alpine A110-50 Concept '12

Last 2012, the Renault Alpine celebrated its 50th anniversary by showcasing its Alpine A110-50 Concept race car, which in my opinion, looks more of a racer like the destroyed Mazda Furai Concept. This birthday present from Renault is powered by a Renault V4Y 6-cylinder engine developing over 400HP of power and 422Nm of torque. It's mated with a 6-speed sequential semi-automatic transmission operated by paddle shifters. Because the bodywork is carbon, it weighs less than a Ford Fiesta. If GT6 featured this, the A110-50 Concept is worth more of a challenge to us.

The results please? So when one of these cars showed up in future updates on GT6, you can't say I have a little bit to do with that.

Take that to Kaz Yamauchi!

Bee and PuppyCat Kickstarter a success

Bee and PuppyCat is a web short toon created by Natasha Allegri, the woman responsible for the Fionna and Cake episodes of Adventure Time, and it was streamed by Frederator Studio's Cartoon Hangover.

Facelifts for two Nissan MPVs

2014 Nissan Elgrand

2014 Nissan Serena

The Nissan Elgrand E52 and the Nissan Serena C26, both of these current-generation models have been around for about three years since their 2010 debut and for the 2013 Tokyo Motor Show, expect a minor change for the two of the most popular MPVs offered from Nissan. No further details for now but the Nissan Elgrand E52 minor change will be available this January while the Nissan Serena C26 minor change will be next month.

Nissan Teana J33 set for Tokyo debut!

2014 Nissan Teana

After its debut on China and Thailand, the third-generation Nissan Teana (J33) will make its Japan premiere at this year's Tokyo Motor Show and having learned its lesson from the Asian nations, the new model throws away the previous model's V6 engines in favor for a more fuel-efficient QR25DE engine which produces 165HP of power while mated with Nissan's next-generation XTRONIC CVT gearbox.

The ultimate S-Class is set for its Tokyo Motor Show reveal and this brand-new S65 AMG, available exclusively as a long-wheelbase model, really stirs up some German seriousness through the eyes of the TMS crowds. Under the bonnet, the new S65 AMG is powered by a 6.0L V12 BiTurbo engine, which is as similar from today's SL65 AMG. No further details for now but expect the 2014 S65 AMG to debut at the 2013 Tokyo Motor Show.

Top Gear USA S04E07

The world of tomorrow, today. The boys at Top Gear USA are comparing three of the latest compact electric cars. Rut opts in for the Nissan Leaf, while Tanner opts for the Ford Focus Electric, and Adam goes for the Fiat 500e.

The first challenge involves on a drag race at the Milan Dragway against the Camaro ZL1 and since their compacts can't stand the chance, the boys switched for electric-powered drag racers; an electric S10, an electric Porsche, and an electric dragster.

Adam and the electric S10 made it a second slower than a ZL1 while Rut in an electric Porsche done it quicker. As for Tanner and the EV dragster, consider this a win for Tanner.

With Tanner won the EV drag challenge in different cars, it's back to the compacts and onto the next challenge involving the reverse speed record. Tanner did it in 20mph reverse on the Focus Electric while Adam and the 500e done it in 27mph and as for Rut and the Leaf, it's a record breaking 57mph! 57MPH in reverse! Leaf takes a first win in the challenge.

Next stop...the mall! The boys will drive their cars through the mall without being caught by Segway-riding mall cops. After hours of mall ruckus, Rut escaped first while Tanner's second to escape and Adam is the last to get out of the mall alive.

With the Leaf secured two wins in this episode, the next challenge involves how quiet these electric cars are by sneaking out the house and drive their cars out in the neighborhood without making much noise. Even though the Focus Electric was made for silence, the tire noise issue caused him much ruckus. Just before Rut escape the house, his idea of a ladder escape caused him even more ruckus as well as slamming the door of the Leaf before setting off. Adam and the 500e never done this whole discreet challenge very well.

Despite that, Rutledge Wood is the overall winner and the key person to power test Tesla's electric sports saloon, the Model S.

The Tesla Model S is one of the most high-tech EV sports saloon in the market but the question is...is the Model S capable to outrun the Camaro ZL1?

In a drag race, yes but only just though. But how corner-worthy is the Model S against the MB S-Class AMG? While the S-Class set a 1:15 lap time, the Model S, with The Stig at the wheel, did it in 1:12! 3 seconds quicker!!!

With the Tesla Model S, this electric premium saloon proves that the world of tomorrow really is...now.

1999 Honda Civic Hatchback

The EK-spec Civic Hatchback is a one step further from the tuner-favorite EG-spec Civic hatchback. Although more of a full model change, it's still a favorite among tuners everywhere because being a Honda, it will always have a wide reputation of being tuned by hardcore car enthusiasts. No matter the age, it's still one of the coolest JDM hatchbacks known to men.

1999 Honda Civic Hatchback

2012 Lamborghini Sesto Elemento

Sesto Elemento means Sixth Element in Italian and when you look that up in the periodic table of elements, that sixth element is carbon, making this a carbon-wrapped masterpiece only Lamborghini could ever think of and it's a track-only monster so you can't use it on the road sadly. Even though it's powered by the same 5.2L V10 from the Gallardo, it takes 2.5 seconds to accumulate a 0-60mph sprint and because it weighs less than the subcompacts, it has a stronger power to weight ratio of 0.57 hp/kg.

1986 Toyota Corolla

The AE86-spec Toyota Corolla GTS or what the Japanese calls it the Sprinter Trueno GT-Apex is notably one of the most notable JDM hatchbacks in its existence but there's more to it than that because despite being a rear-wheel drive hatchback for the enthusiasts, it's well known to be Takumi Fujiwara's car of choice in Initial D.

Hennessey Performance tweaks C7 Corvette to have 600hp

Hennessey HPE600 Corvette

To be fair, me and the brand new 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray don't usually get along very well ever since Sony and Polyphony Digital have exclusive rights for this car as well as being the cover car for the upcoming Gran Turismo 6 video game on the PS3. Question: WHY CAN'T WE BE FRIENDS? Answer: Because it's a Gran Turismo-only car and I don't want video games, especially Forza Motorsport 5, to feature the latest itineration. Like I always warned over the months; the C7 Corvette remains a Gran Turismo-only car.

Now, Hennessey Performance, a Texas-based tuner and creator of the speed-breaking Venom GT which caused too much hype on the motoring community, gets their hands down and dirty to bring the C7 Corvette the boost it desires and the V8 that powers it now churns over 600HP of power courtesy of tuning parts and packages that costs $10,950.

Leopaul's Heaven and Hell: DEAR TOP GEAR UK, PLEASE DESTROY THE C7 CORVETTE!

C7 Corvette from a Top Gear USA episode

Dear Top Gear UK,

My name is Leopaul del Rosario and I have been a huge Top Gear fan since I first watch your show. I became addicted to the show because this is the first time a show about cars and carnage really suits my personality very well. I just have one proposal for the chaps (namely Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond, and James May) and this is an urgent one that needs to be enclosed; PLEASE DESTROY THE C7 CORVETTE!

The reason why I really do hate this brand new 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is simple, it's not because the design looks revolting as well as its performance, it's the car that caused me painful backstories. You all heard the news that Top Gear is no longer included in the upcoming PS3 game, Gran Turismo 6, and since because Microsoft has exclusivity for Top Gear content to be shown at the upcoming XBOX One launch game, Forza Motorsport 5, I am willing to buy myself both the XBOX ONE and FM5 because of Top Gear. I've been dealing with a lot of morons saying "no, Forza 5 should not feature the C7 Corvette because it's a Gran Turismo-exclusive car" but those men or should I say speedo boys don't care what I just said. They think that the C7 Corvette should be featured in the upcoming FM5 but I kept warning about the possible onslaught because if FM5 once featured the brand new 2014 Corvette Stingray, not only I'll consider this a "theft" but also "unfair competition" because they stole the car that was exclusive to Gran Turismo.

Since Top Gear is no longer included in GT6 because of the exclusivity from Forza 5, it's time this game deserve a payback. GT6 has no Top Gear, Forza 5 should not feature the C7 Corvette. That's all. Just saying.

And that's why I want you boys to turn the brand new C7 Corvette into endangered species, the same thing what you did to caravans in the past to present. I don't care about you boys test driving it but what I want you boys is treat it the same thing you guys did on caravans. Exploding those C7 Corvettes also work because I want the whole world to be free of those monstrosity that caused me irrational fears. As a matter of fact, The Stig really hates this car because if that tamed racing driver encounter one of those, he wants to blow this car up to the air. It's no wonder this "Gran Tursmo-exclusive" machine likes blowing raspberries in the face of Top Gear.

Do me a favor Top Gear UK, please get rid of the C7 Corvette and tell Forza Motorsport 5 that they should better not feature that Vette because like I always said, the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is, as always, exclusive to the world of Gran Turismo.

Thank you and have a great day.

Sincerely,

Leopaul del Rosario
