Toyota Vitz RS G's (G Sports)

2012 Toyota Vitz RS G's


The latest addition of Toyota's Sport Conversion Series, known as G's (G Sports), is the Vitz RS G's, using the NCP131 Toyota Vitz RS as the base to create the ultimate Vitz that no other Japanese car enthusiasts never seen before since its preview at the 2011 Tokyo Auto Salon.

The Vitz RS G's features an impressive exterior design that is highly attractive in the eyes of Japanese car enthusiasts. With all that aero kit attached, this souped up Vitz RS is one heck of a monster. Imagine driving at the Hakone with that one! On the interior, red stitching is applied on the steering wheel, shift knob, and leather seats and the paneling is covered mostly with Carbon Fiber. The dark interior really makes it up for those who put on their leather-scented perfume. This has been proven to be manly enough to drive through the Shutokou and the touge. The all new Vitz RS G's is all about impression.

It is equipped with the 1NZ-FE (1.5L DOHC) engine that produces 80kW (109PS)/6,000r.p.m. of power output, 138N・m (14.1kgf・m) /4,400r.p.m. of torque output, and they can be outfitted with either a 5-speed manual or a Super CVT-i with Manual Mode. A specially tuned suspension and sports brake pads are equipped because this was engineered to be more of a "Fuji Speedway" material.

The Vitz RS G's is available in seven exterior colors such as White Pearl Crystal Shine, Super White II, Silver Metallic, Gray Metallic, Black Mica, Super Red V, and Turquoise Mica Metallic.

My Comment:
You can't resist such a wild temptation on the new Toyota Vitz RS G's because of such aggressive exterior design. Once you're in, there's no way to forget about this car. With G Sports slogan "Control As You Like", you can have fun with the new Vitz RS G's as long as you like. This will be the envy of everyone at the Daikoku Parking Area.

Wow! Diet Coke gets a minor change!

MINOR CHANGE
FOR DIET COKE!


What a surprise. I noticed that the Diet Coke labeling underwent some kind of minor change. Made me shocked but remains the same great Diet Coke taste...

How does that new look made you feel?

Saan Kaya Galing?

Kuya Kim Atienza says "Saan Kaya Galing?" or "Where are these come from?" when we look at something good. Oh yes, this is the latest TV commercial for Pigrolac.

"Only Pigrolac contains Pigrobuilders for lean meat production."

Sounds true and most people rely on Pigrolac as the best hog feed for productivity. LAMANG KA SA MALAMAN! Approved for the Baboy Kampeon (Swine Champion) in mind!

Cool Metal...

Axe Shower Gel - Cool Metal


I'm guessing this is the newest addition to the Axe Shower Gel lineup - the Axe Cool Metal Shower Gel.

When I smelled it, I never thought this variant has the best smell ever compared to most Axe Shower Gels I've used in the past. I love this kind of Axe Shower Gel because of the added fine quartz and zinc that keeps me energetic all day long.

I've bought this at Safeway and upon my first week of using this, I am highly recommending this new kind of Axe Shower Gel to almost anybody...

Toyota to unveil PIXIS kei cars this month - first PIXIS is based on the Move Conte!

Toyota Motor Corporation will unveil the first of the new PIXIS sub-brand this late September 2011 under the name "PIXIS SPACE" (ピクシススペース), which was based on the Daihatsu Move Conte compact car. After the Toyota version of the Daihatsu Move Conte was released this month, there will be a Toyota versions of the Daihatsu Hijet Truck and Van coming this December and by next year a Toyota version of the upcoming Daihatsu kei car that provides a fuel economy of 30.0km/L in JC08 Mode test cycle.

Toyota will also make its own mini-store that sells these kind of kei cars called "PIXIS STATION" soon, until then, stay tuned before the reveal of Toyota's first kei car sourced from Daihatsu.

"An Die Freude" for Toyota...

Lexus LFA Nurburgring Edition


Both the 2011 Nissan GT-R R35 Phase II and the 2012 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 will be passed out because the Lexus LFA Nurburgring Edition clocked the Nurburgring Nordschleife within a lap time of 7:14.64, making it the 4th fastest Production Vehicle in the Nurburgring!



Toyota Motor Corporation brought in test driver Akira Iida to conduct a Nurburgring time attack with the Lexus LFA Nurburgring Edition, equipped with Bridgestone Potenza RE070 tires developed specifically to this car. A roll cage was installed for this car as well.

I am surely got my mind blown away upon seeing this result. As a matter of fact, we were passed out because of such lap time achieved by the most powerful Lexus LFA ever made.

Flashback: Obviously Sporty...



In a country like Thailand, it's a different angle to advertise such a Bridgestone product like the Bridgestone MY-01 Sport Tourer, a different kind of Sports Tire that can enhance your car's appearance and handling.

On that ad, we saw some geek asking to some man that he wants the man's daughter to go out for a church until the dad saw the Bridgestone MY-01 attached on the geek's Toyota Vitz/Yaris. The dad says "wait right here" and the girl gets inside the geek's Vitz/Yaris and they're going and when the Vitz/Yaris stopped, the geek says "wait right here" and then quickly modified the Vitz/Yaris and the geek turned into some kind of a street punk! When the street punk gets in, saying that it's hard to fool parents these days, turns out that the girl near him was actually some tough guy dressed as a girl!

The Bridgestone MY-01 Sport Tourer tires are the kind of tires which are "obviously sporty" on the outside and on the inside. Turns girls sitting next to the driver's seat into tough guys dressed as girls.

Sprint joins fight against AT&T x T-Mobile merger

So, authorities are fighting against the incoming merger between AT&T and T-Mobile...

I've never hear this thing coming when that kind of merger comes with controversies....

And now, another one joins the fight against the AT&T x T-Mobile merger....

It's probably Sprint Nextel...

According to Sprint, if that merger of these two companies is accomplished, there will be less competition, high costs, restrict access to handsets, and it will ruin the future of these companies.

Last week, the Department of Justice filed an antitrust lawsuit seeking to stop this controversial merger. That suit claims that this merger would violate antitrust laws that were made to prevent such monopolies and duopolies.

So what now? Is there any way to stop these two companies to collide each other?

PSA: What if everthing in this world has breathalyzers?

The Mercedes-Benz Club of the Philippines launched a Public Service Announcement about breathalyzers. Of course in automotive safety, breathalyzers measure your blood alcohol content and the vehicle doesn't run in case of a drunk driver, preventing the cases of drunk driving. Now, on that PSA, we might imagine that what if everyone has their own breathalyzers. Even a cellphone has a breathalyzer.

There is just one thing, how can a drunk driver can bypass the car's breathalyzer? Finding someone who's not alcoholic of course. Sure, you can avoid penalty but it will cost you. Good luck.

Territorial Terrors! A new Camry of different territories!

In honor of the world-premiere of the all-new JDM Camry, let's compare the New Generation Camry of different territories!

2012 Toyota Camry

2012 Toyota Camry (US-Spec)

2012 Toyota Camry (Ukraine-spec)

It's simple. Back in late August 2011, US Toyota launched the all-new Camry with design derived from the previous Camry but edged it up to make it sportier. The Camry is the number one medium sedan in North America thanks to its durability. With such new look, the US-Spec new Camry is designed for the Americans in mind. The US-Spec Camry is offered in 2.5L petrol engine and a Camry Hybrid.


There's is a big catch. The US-Spec Camry will also be available in Australia by November as the new Camry Atara.

2012 Toyota Camry Atara

With details remain slim for now, some say that the Camry Atara will use the same 2.5L engine as from the US-Spec Camry...


With the US-Spec Camry out in the open, a country like Ukraine unwrapped a different kind of Camry which will the other parts of the world, especially emerging ones, get this...

2012 Toyota Camry (Ukraine-spec)


I've never thought that the Ukraine-spec new Camry looks elegant and intellectual, giving some kind of a "KAREN (可憐)" appeal to the customers but still it uses the 2.5L gasoline engine. That's not all, the Ukraine-spec Camry will also get a 3.5L V6 engine as well! This beautiful kind of Camry will be on sale at Ukraine this October...

So...this is it...on September 5, 2011, the real Camry is here...

2012 Toyota Camry


The new JDM Camry is now a hybrid-only sedan and its powered with the new 2AR-FXE engine with Toyota Hybrid System II. The new JDM Camry is similar to the Ukraine-spec Camry but with the much elegant grille that makes it more sophisticated like some kind of an upperclassman.

Now, I wonder which Camry we'll get....

Camry Modellista? Anyone?

2012 Toyota Camry Customize Car Lineup


Looking for something to make you feel like a upperclassman? Toyota offer some special Modellista packaging just for the New Generation Toyota Camry (AVV50). The Modellista Camry offers a special front spoiler, side skirt, and rear skirt. One aero kit can cost about 147,000 Japanese Yen. It can be offered in available exterior colors such as White Pearl Crystal Shine, Silver Metallic, and Attitude Black Mica. They also offer Modellista parts such as a special 19-inch Aluminum Wheel and Tyre set, Low Down Suspension, Trunk Spoiler, Mirror Finish, special Wooden Interior Panel Set to make it more classy and a Relaxation Cushion with the vibrator installed.

For details, please consult your nearest Corolla dealer...

New Generation Toyota Camry (AVV50)

The 2012 New Generation Toyota Camry takes on a whole new twist on Toyota's executive midsize sedan and for the first time in Camry history, the New Generation Camry is now a hybrid-only sedan, guaranteed to create a cleaner executive sedan that provides exceptional performance and optimum fuel economy which makes it "the first of its kind" and the new, hybrid-only, Toyota Camry is fully loaded with never before seen features!

2012 Toyota Camry





The New Generation Camry has an utterly familiar exterior design. The side view was derived from the previous generation Camry to keep it more of an instant classic. The new front grille looks exceptionally classy like the previous-generation, ASEAN-spec Camry, and this flawless design really knows that this new Camry achieved its style status. It provides a dynamic character on Toyota's executive midsize sedan molded with some premium aestheticism and partisanship, making it a one-of-a-kind luxury hybrid sedan which is much more stylish than the Toyota SAI and Lexus HS250h combined.

 
2012 Toyota Camry interior





If the New Generation Camry's exterior is the center of attention, the new interior really makes it up to satisfy the executive, providing more space to breathe in. On the driver's view, the new interior can be somewhat borrowed from the second-generation Toyota Mark X. Thanks to that, the new interior can be somewhat set to its premium level and with such craftsmanship, no wonder the New Generation Camry's interior mastered the art of perfection to bring the Yin and Yang between the driver and passenger. You should be happy with the available HDD Navigation System that helps you get through your nearest points of interest.

 
2012 Toyota Camry





And now, the main course of the New Generation Camry is the newly developed 2AR-FXE (2.5L DOHC Dual VVT-i) engine loaded with Toyota Hybrid System II. The new 2AR-FXE engine, developed exclusively on the New Generation Camry, produces a standard 160PS/6,000rpm of power output, 213Nm(21.7kg-m)/4,000rpm of torque output, and the fuel economy of 23.4km/L on JC08 Mode scale (26.5km/L on 10-15 Mode scale). One trivia that the 160PS power output can be increased up to 206PS once the 105kW 2JM electric motor is active. Like any other hybrids, the new Camry has EV Mode that keeps only the 2JM electric motor active rather than the 2AR-FXE engine for zero-emission driving. The CVT is the standard transmission offered for the new Camry for enhanced fuel economy and comfortable driving on winding roads. 

Being a SU-LEV (Super Low Emission Vehicle) needs to be the safest, and the new Camry has the memo for that. It includes the finest safety features available such as Steering-assisted Vehicle Stability Control, Traction Control, Electronic Brake force Distribution, Pedestrian Warning system that emits noise on some pedestrians, including the blind, Hill Start Assist Control, Discharge Headlamps, 7 SRS airbags, and Global Outstanding Assessment (GOA) for a reinforced bodywork.

Available in seven exterior colors such as White Pearl Crystal Shine, Silver Metallic, Gray Metallic, Dark Steel Mica, Attitude Black Mica, Olive Mica Metallic, and True Blue Mica Metallic. The new Camry comes in three variants; Base, G Package, and Leather Package. 

My comment: 
The big twist on the all new Camry is being a hybrid-only sedan for the first time even in a Japan-spec Camry. This has done because Toyota wanted to create a SU-LEV executive sedan capable of being luxurious and eco-friendly. You could say that the all new 2AR-FXE engine is definitely developed exclusively for this new model, and this new engine has the best fuel economy than the Toyota SAI and Lexus HS250h combined. Aside from that, the introductory price of 3,040,000 Japanese Yen shows that this must be a cheaper alternative to the Toyota SAI, which costs 3,380,000 Yen, and the Lexus HS250h, which costs about 3,950,000 Yen. I'm impressed but will the new hybrid-only Toyota Camry hit the Philippines soon?

Les frères Tulfo sont là pour vous aider!

Bonjour! It seems that TV5's NEWS5 division is raising the bar even further by bringing the three Tulfo brothers for the first time on the new program "T3: Kapatid, Sagot Kita".

C'est vrai, viewers! For the first time, Erwin, Ben, and Raffy Tulfo joined forces to bring you the best "public service" we want. All your problems and complaints are now being answered and taken action by the Tulfo brothers. This will put XXX and Imbestigador to shame, even though these three are not on the same timeslots.

Despite that, I hope T3 will do the same success as ABS-CBN's XXX and GMA's Imbestigador did, when it comes to take immediate action against wrongdoings that are highly common around the Philippines.

Get ready because T3 will start airing this Monday, September 5, right after Aksyon Prime!
