Porsche 918 Spyder Hybrid

Porsche has confirmed on Wednesday that it will build the Porsche 918 Spyder, initially gone public earlier this year as a concept at the 2010 Geneva Auto Show. The German automaker said the production version of the high-performance hybrid will be assembled in limited numbers at its home plant in Zuffenhausen, just outside Stuttgart. An official statement released Wednesday said the company has received an "overwhelming response" from the public to the Porsche 918 Spyder concept. Earlier reports indicated Porsche had received expressions of interest from more than 900 buyers. Porsche did not specify a production start-up date or a price tag, although widespread media reports in Europe have suggested the sticker could exceed $600,000.

BMW X3 2011 Sport Utility Vehicle

The new generation BMW X3 is built following the success of the original by developing its core competencies while applying new technology to put new benchmarks for agility, efficiency and comfort. The new BMW X3 will be produced in an expansion of the BMW Spartanburg, South Carolina plant and is expected to arrive in US BMW Centers by the end of 2010.

The profile of the new SUV BMW X3 is also characterized by a unique interpretation of typical BMW X design features. Powerfully flared wheel arches and the short front and rear overhangs emphasize the robust character of a BMW Sports Utility Vehicle. The dynamic appearance of the silhouette is accentuated by three characteristic lines. The new BMW X3's brand-typical upper contour line at door handle level rises steeply at first within the front wheel arch area, then flows gently to the rear. Two additional subtle lines follow this contour line above the wheel arches.

2011 Mustang GT: Prototype CAI & Dyno Tune – Huge Power Gains!

Our 2011 5.0L Mustang GT, a Prototype CAI, and the Bama Custom Tuning Team

Within 24 hours of taking possession of our 2011, we turned our Bama Custom Tuning division loose on some exclusive prototypes for upgrades to see what performance gains they could squeeze out of the GT. With a custom tune developed on our dyno and an exclusive new CAI prototype from C&L Performance, we were able to feed our need for speed. Read more and watch the video at blog.americanmuscle.com/2011-mustang-gt-prototype-cai-dyno-tune-huge-power-gains/.

Here’s a summary of our chassis dyno testing:

* Stock – no modifications: 363RWHP / 331RWTQ
* Factory tune, Prototype C&L cold air intake: 374RWHP / 338RWTQ
* Bama Custom Tune, stock Airbox: 379RWHP / 357RWTQ
* Bama Custom Tune, Prototype C&L cold air intake: 385RWHP / 362RWTQ

2011 Mustang GT 5.0L owners can expect a nice performance bump from just a tune alone. These numbers rival the high output of the SVT Performance group’s Supercharged 2003-2004 Cobra and various other high performance models from Ford’s Specialty Vehicles Team. Camaros and Challengers, watch out! With a Bama Tune installed, the new 5.0L has become the leader of the pack!



In addition to the rear wheel horsepower and torque gains, drivers will experience better throttle response, faster/firmer shifting, and an overall increase in driveability. These hot new calibrations are available immediately, exclusively from AmericanMuscle.com. Final production versions of the C&L cold air intake will be ready to purchase from AmericanMuscle before the end of summer, 2010. Stay tuned for more exclusive prototype test results and footage!

Don't give up Melvin..!

Hesitated about lowering your car?

Not exactly in the best mood now.. Stuck at home with nothing to do with my last 3 cigarettes in a packet which I took out from the dustbin (In the process of quitting smoking).. So I decided to take myself away to Driftneyland. I found just about the perfect pictures to portrait slamming your drift cars. Hope this short write up would do you some good than harm

When I tell others about lowering cars, there's always a common mistake here in Malaysia. Here, most of us will instantly ask, 'How many fingers?' a.k.a how many fingers you can put fit in between your fenders and wheels. Uhh.. that was the definition of slamming from the 80's man.. Who said there will be any fingers in the first place?

Then, when they see pictures like this, they'll start assuming. "OH COME ONNN... that car CAN'T DRIFT.. No WAY...... " Hello? Check out those battle scars :p

Then, there'll be the 2nd excuse.. "It's my DAILY CAR....." Swear to God, I'll die to go to work in this even if I have to travel pass an army of speed humps to get to my work place. Remember earlier we were talking about cars like these are unable to drift?

Don't ass-u-me.. This car has less roll compared to your "battle spec" drift machine.. Just need to know how to do it properly. I hate to tell you this.. but, Google actually helped me more than merely understanding chassis geometry settings. Not to mention the great friends I made along the way in the fun world of drifting. Lowering your car can be a mess, but if you'd figure out the science behind the screws, you're on your way. It's no rocket science.

Saturday Night Stance













I am so sorry for my absence and the poisonous come back. :p Have a good weekend, see you tomorrow at UITM! I'll drop by for abit.. CAMPUS DORI!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Drinks magically turn hot after you press on the lever!

Many of you that have met me might know that I'm a total sucker for a warm brew of good coffee.. I accidentally stumbled upon this online and I thought I should share this invention with you. It's available with four flavours, latte, mocha, tea and hot chocolate. Some even claims to see smoke coming out from it! And all of it happens in your hands.. Probably go hunt for it after work on Monday. It's available in Cold Storage.. and if you do see it in the petrol kiosk.. Don't hesitate to grab yourself a can!
