Paalam, Wako Wako! I Wako You! Heh...

We love Wako Wako, it's probably one of the best fantaserye kids of all ages love since Kokey and e-boy. We also love Yogo Singh's performance as the main character, Muymuy, a simple boy who later revealed as the chosen one, who can save the kingdom of Arukanan against the clutches of the evil Ukaw Ukaw.

On the finale, when Ukaw Ukaw, stuck in the body of Dado (DJ Durano), attacked Dado's child (or somewhat Muymuy's rival which later became good), Jonas, Dado wants to get Ukaw Ukaw away from his body while Muymuy, his friends, his family, and Wako Wako (whose Arukan name is Barkan) is on the hunt to find and defeat Ukaw Ukaw once and for all. While Ukaw Ukaw is out of Dado's body, Dado turned himself in and Jonas apologizes to Muymuy and decided to work together as a team to stop them. Well, they have to watch out because Ukaw Ukaw used some kind of mind control on the cops and Dado's men while holding Muymuy's mom, Isay (Gladys Reyes) captive.

To save Isay and the stoned Dyosa Marishka (Ai Ai Delas Alas), they have to stop enemies getting their way, but Tommy (Carlos Agassi), a cop buddy of Rodel (Vandolph), got wounded on the gun fight and he have to get Dado and Rodel move on to save them. Tats (Dennis Padilla) and Betchay (Maricar De Mesa) though, uh, they're still blabbermouthing if Muymuy and his family are okay.

Meanwhile, Muymuy and Wako Wako faced Ukaw Ukaw...again. Using powers, the two stopped Ukaw Ukaw and the two are on the trail to save Isay and Dyosa Marishka but Ukaw Ukaw stood up and encountered Dado and Rodel. He used mind control on these two and his mind power made Dado shot Rodel.

Later on, Muymuy rescued his mom, Isay, and Dyosa Marishka. Muymuy told Dyosa Marishka that he didn't find the last of the six wishes to bring Dyosa Marishka back but there is a way. They transported through the path where Ukaw Ukaw harmed Dado and Rodel. However, because of Ukaw Ukaw, Muymuy has a choice if he has to save his family or have evil breaks loose. It was difficult until Dado was the one who said the wish, which became the last of the six pure wishes that Muymuy and Wako Wako has to search to save Dyosa Marishka. With Dyosa Marishka made her comeback, the final fight has begun and Muymuy has get his family and Dado out to safety while helping Dyosa Marishka to defeat Ukaw Ukaw. However, Ukaw Ukaw's powers is so strong, he knocked off Wako Wako but the powers of both Muymuy and Dyosa Marishka are intensifying until Ukaw Ukaw was erased for good. With Ukaw Ukaw gone for good, Wako Wako dies!

While mourning the death of Wako Wako, Dyosa Marishka has a way to revive him if Muymuy has to leave his family and stay at the kingdom of Arukanan for good. It wasn't a good choice for Muymuy because there is a lesson learned that wishes have limitations. It became a sad thing to see Wako Wako gone for good but he showed up at Muymuy's dream. While they prayed, a brownout broke out on the house and happily, Wako Wako's showed up! Alive and Well! No idea how but we're glad to see our favorite Arukan alive and well. It gets even better, the once abandoned wishing fountain is now on Muymuy's house (thanks to Dado).

Sad to say, Dyosa Marishka and Wako Wako bid Muymuy, his friends, and his family, farewell as they return to the kingdom of Arukanan. However, Wako Wako has to stay with Muymuy in the human world because he wants to protect Wako Wako. Now that's happy ending!

Wako Wako ending

And on that bombshell, it's time to bid Wako Wako and Muymuy farewell! Thank you for watching Wako Wako! Good-bye! I wako you!

The Black Hot Cayenne Pepper

They're practicing for rehearsals


What you're looking here are four very pointless SUVs who think they're super but they're not. Someone claimed that it had a very powerful V12 diesel, someone told that it has a supercharged Jaaag (sorry about that) engine, and others...um...others...well, they're way too complicated to ask.

When they move, someone came to ruin their party...

Whoa! Who's that?!

Catching up!

This guy's hard to catch!

What SUV was that? It feels like...a Porsche!

Who's messing the party?

Welcome to the Dark Side

Meet the new Cayenne

Well...this is what it caused this whole party pooper. Meet the brand new Porsche Cayenne. It's part of the all new Forza Motorsport 4 Porsche Expansion Pack and on paper, this is somewhat a bit "super" and it still remembers that the "Sport" in the Sport Utility Vehicle really hits the spot. Really? Does the Cayenne still remembers the Sport word even though that this new model still retains the reputation of being the Porsche 911 of SUVs?

Whoa! Looks like a giant Galapagos tortoise!

Well, no. Even if you call it the Porsche 911 of the Sport Utility Vehicle regime, it wasn't worth superb as it seems. When you handle the new Cayenne, it still takes a lot of effort and some G's to push it away from the corners. Interestingly, when you go a bit faster, the steering's a bit rock solid and it will simply yell "What are you doing?! Stop being so stupid! I'm not a supercar, I'm a sport utility vehicle!" Yeah right. The Cayenne is just an SUV with some nonsense whim but here, what you find here has a 4.8L V8 turbo engine that came from the Panamera Turbo I tried the other day. With such, 0 to 60mph in about 4 seconds, 0-100mph in 9.7 seconds, and top speed is...well...um...278km/h? Kind of... Well anyway, the gearbox, this new Cayenne has...um...eight. Eight gears. The new Cayenne has an eight-speed Tiptronic S transmission and it can shift faster in 0.15 seconds for maximum agility and enhanced pleasure. Eight gears, huh? That's the same as the Lexus IS F but we're not gonna talk about these, right?

The new Cayenne erupts with fury

SUVs like the BMW X6 M, X5 M, Audi Q7 V12, and the Range Rover Supercharged seems to be uncanny. They were fine about their credentials but for the new Cayenne, it has even more credentials than those. As for the pricing, the Cayenne Turbo is most costly than those so you should better work hard to get one. It may be pricey than those sports-oriented SUVs but with the weight that is way lighter than the X5 M, X6 M, Q7 V12, and the Range Rover, you can getaway from those before they discover you're not.

A mile in a day with the new Cayenne...

What bothers me most about the new Cayenne was the design. The Panamera's front looks like the helmet of a Haven Trooper but here on the new Cayenne...it's too hard to describe but anyway, it's rubbish. Looks like a Cayman...on obesity. It even has the most complicating dashboard only a rocket scientist would figure this out and there are way too many buttons on the dashboard, can't figuring out where you wanna start, turn the TCS off, set to Sport Mode, or something something something dark side. Despite being too complicated in design terms, the Cayenne does acts like a 911 even though it has 4WD and the turbocharged engine from the Panamera. This car deserves to be called a "super".

A different kind of supercar drag race...

A few days ago, I went to the internet and I found this...

A video from Motor Trend magazine showcased a drag race with the Lexus LFA, McLaren MP4-12C, Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4, and the Bugatti Veyron. However, it's not what you think. First of all, the LFA and the 12C will have to challenge first and the winner gets to challenge the Aventador and the winner has to challenge the Bugatti Veyron (heh).





You saw what you see here, right? This is how somewhat both the Aventador and the Veyron should have been in last year's world's greatest drag race. Anyway, with such popularity, I devised a plan to create my very own Forza Motorsport 4 version of that drag race...




It's amazing that here in Forza 4, we don't just race, tune, or decorate, we recreate reality! Wow! Now that's amazing, I can tell.

Let's Do The News! (May 23, 2012)

And now the news! Let me just say that I'm glad most Forza faithfuls are very happy with their Porsche Expansion Pack. Not only they have access to 30 Porsche models but they have several Porsche-related challenges to take on for more thrills, more excitement, and more Porsche for the buck. Everybody's happy right now...

No I'm not...

No? You're not happy? With this DLC?

No. I got banned...

Wha...?

I got banned at the forums for...let's be honest, TROLLING.

That's how you get for being a big clattering buttock harassing a perfectly sane, rational, and very professional being. You ruined their plans and that's why they ruined your forum participation.

Mm-hmmm. They gave me a one-month ban to the forums but that doesn't stop me for enjoying the Forza Motorsport 4 Porsche Expansion. I have to say, I only tried the most powerful Porsche in the road, which is the 911 GT2 RS (997), and this one is probably the best Porsche ever tried.

How about the Panamera?

So-so....

(laughing)

Anyway, lets do the news and oh, did you see the Lady Gaga concert in Manila?

Oh yes and despite protests, her concert moves on as part of her Asian tour. Speaking of which, why did protests spark against Lady Gaga...

Maybe it was that song, Judas, that caused them enraged for being blasphemous. 

Yeah, indeed. And did ya know that Lady Gaga made a special guest appearance on the season finale of THE SIMPSONS?

Oh! I saw that, kind of...

(laughing)

 Lady Gaga guested on THE SIMPSONS before her Philippine concert on the following. How's that?

E he he he... Anyway, let's move on. And this one's sad...

What is it?

I heard that Bee Gees singer Robin Gibb passed away at the age of 62.


I see. He died of cancer. How sad.

Yeah, can't believe a man who was a member of a popular band died before we know it although I kinda say that I love the Bee Gees. There was that song featured at some Korean car commercial, which was...what is it?

The Hyundai Excel.

Oh! The Hyundai Excel!



Not only that, remember the Honda Odyssey RB3 commercial? The song, Stayin Alive by the Bee Gees, were featured.




Okay, enough is enough. Let's move on...

Now, earlier, Gran Turismo 5 launched Update 2.06 and here's what you can expect for this update, which is minor;

- It is now possible to adjust the race BGM and sound effect volume from "Quick Options" during a race.

- A save data backup feature has been added. 

- Compatibility for the sequential shift mode of the Guillemot "TH8 RS" gear shifter has been added.

- A "Performance Difference Adjustment" has been added to the rewards for seasonal events (Applies only to seasonal events held after this update).

- Force feedback for the "Driving Force™GT", "GT FORCE®Pro", "G25 Racing Wheel", " G27 Racing Wheel", and " T500 RS" steering wheel controllers have been improved.

- A car with racing modifications applied are now categorized as a Racing Car (previously Tuned Car).

- The off-track shortcut penalty has been tweaked.

- A new GT5 Photo Stream service has started on gran-turismo.com. Photographs taken in Photo Mode and set to "Share" will now appear on a web page viewable by all visitors.


Photo Stream? What was that?

That's a new service started on the official Gran Turismo website. If you set your photo to Share, it will appear on a web page viewable by most visitors. Think of it like GMA Pinoy TV's Pinoy Photobox. Please remember that not all photos set to "Share" are accommodated. 

Uh okay...

Speaking of which...Joy of joys that I received reports that Doctor Who actress, Karen Gillan, arrives at the Cannes Film Festival to publicize her movie, Not Another Happy Ending, which is set for her shooting in the Summer.


I had never realized that our favorite Doctor Who actress, the one who is way better than Billie Piper, Freema Agyeman, or Catherine Tate, grew up so fast. Ahh, she grew up really fast. We saw her on some TV movie called "We'll Take Manhattan", portraying a true-to-life story of Jean Shrimpton.

Yeah, happy to see her moving on even when her term as Doctor Who's companion coming to a close. :-)

Ah, Amy Pond....

Shhh...Shhh..Enough fetish over Amy Pond from Doctor Who. I got something to show you...

I saw something on the internet that some good chap of the manor saw some kind of gear oil lubricant using the Top Gear name unashamedly.

Top Gear oil

(laughing)

Whoa! What's that? TOP GEAR LUBRICANT?!!!

Indeed yes...


You'd never know that this one did exist. National Top Gear Heavy Duty Gear Oil?! Wa ha ha ha!

(laughing)

Go ahead folks, sue this but despite that, I think it's rather cool to see good chaps unashamedly using the Top Gear name. Even the Forza 4 itashas really put a Top Gear logo on it.

Yeah, most people do love to use Top Gear for humorous purposes. What's next? TOP GEARS OF WAR?

(laughing)

Geeks...

Speaking of which, yesterday, the Tokyo Sky Tree was opened and wow, this is much more cool than the Tokyo Tower. Four years in the making and Japan's tallest stand tall among the rest.

Wow, I really want to visit the Tokyo Sky Tree one day. Speaking of which, what is the Tokyo Sky Tree anyway?

Tokyo Sky Tree is the world's highest free standing broadcasting tower with cutting edge technology. With 634 meters high, Guinness Book of World Records heralded it as the world's tallest tower. Amazing!

So, if you're a tourist in Japan, which do you want to go? The old Tokyo Tower or the new Tokyo Sky Tree?

I admit that I still want to go to the Tokyo Tower because this is much more iconic but I can't deny that this new Tokyo Sky Tree is much more of a benchmark and this is Japan's greatest tourist destination. Yes, it's probably playing a major role in Japanese broadcasting, scenics suggesting that in 2013, the Sky Tree will start broadcasting Japan's popular TV networks including TV Tokyo, NHK, NTV, Tokyo MX, TBS, TV Asahi, and Fuji TV.


Brilliant. I wanna visit there.

Yeah. Oh and guess what? Bad news. I got reports that Hideki Taniuchi, you may probably remember him for doing original music score for Death Note and Kaiji, got arrested on marijuana charges.


Wha...What? I don't get it. Arrested due to marijuana? Oh geez...

Yes. I know...Anyway moving on...

I got reports suggesting that the movie version of Hana-saku Iroha...

Shhh...Shhhh...

What? Just saying that the movie version is coming this year...


I know. Movie version of Hana-Saku Iroha coming this year and we're running out of time. That's the news and let's get out of here. Ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Conway Twitty!


Welcome Back: 2010 Porsche Panamera Turbo

Four door supercars!


Yes, with the Porsche Panamera included in the Porsche DLC Pack, the four-door supercar fray is complete. Get it? Four door supercars! Just like in one Top Gear episode when Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond, and James May drove these three at the streets of London, thrashing around the closed business park (with The Stig) and how are these three worked as bridal cars for the wedding.



Oh, and something tells me that the Porsche Panamera first appeared in one episode of Top Gear where Hammond and May race with the Panamera against the Royal Mail delivering a package and in the end, the parcel defeated the Panamera. Ooh, too bad. However, there were some outtakes during the Panamera vs. Royal Mail race. Those include Hammond and May fight in the Porsche...



And the one that won Top Gear Awards 2009 "Injury of the Year Award"; HAMMOND AND MAY IN PAIN! Those idiots banged their head on the camera! LOLZ



The bewitching rear wing from the Panamera!

Another thing that surprised me about the Panamera was its rear wing that automatically appears when I hit over 60mph. That looks creepy but its cool to see something straight from the Panamera's back.

So, that's the Panamera returned on Forza 4 via Porsche Expansion Pack. Ugly car, serious power. It's way much faster than the hundred-thousand Pound Aston Rapide and the Maserati Quattroporte, despite the sound is a bit too low rather than the Rapide and the Quattroporte, which can make better sounds on their speeds.

Good luck recreating the final scene of the Top Gear Four Door Supercars episode, which involves drag race and power sliding! In the meantime, time to admire the bewitching Panamera by driving it round the Top Gear Test Track! Thanks, T10!


The Porsche 911 GT2 RS. Awe.

Today is the day Forza Motorsport 4 released the Porsche Expansion Pack, loaded with 30 Porsches and new Porsche-related challenges to test the mettle of your Porsche-ism. We'll start today with the one that is truly one of the best 911's ever made and this one's truly hardcore...

Awe...

This is the Porsche 911 GT2 RS, the most powerful road-legal Porsche ever made. Of course, it started out in life as a 911 GT2 but with added 90HP of power and 70kg weight loss, the power to weight ratio is 2.21kg per horsepower. Thanks to Porsche Intelligent Performance, not only the Porsche 911 GT2 RS is powerful but also more fuel efficient thanks to 5% deduction of both fuel consumption and CO2 emissions in the NEDC New European Driving Cycle.

It's hard to describe what's what about this ultimate beetle but let me put it this way, in a certain enthusiast's point of view...

&%$#!

*&#@!

The Widowmaker conquers the Corkscrew!

HOLY @$%#!

$#@%ING $@#!

Now that's hot!

ARE YOU $#%ING SERIOUS?!

#$%$@!!!

...and that concludes how I explain about the Porsche 911 GT2 RS. Awe.

Sorry about the rude words told but that's how it happened when your foot touches the pedal of the 911 GT2 RS and with such power, such style, such technique, it's a different animal in the playground. You'll never know what sort of tricks this car can do but believe me, it works like magic. 

Performance is art

It's easy to be seduced to the power, beauty, and soul of the most powerful road-legal Porsche in the world. Judging of its beauty, would you look at that? It kinda looks like some young woman is on her racing swimsuit. Very athletic indeed and yes. That 911 GT2 RS really looked sexy on the outside. On the inside, you would expect that it could be a cave but no. You couldn't guess that the sat-nav is an optional feature, something that The Stig wants to listen to nonsense music while driving the 911 GT2 RS.

Despite its raw power, this is turning to be a mild but menacing Porsche I have ever driven in my life. It can be twitchy, it can be difficult, it can be dynamic, it can bite you from a slight mistake, but overall, this is a fun but terrifying car only the hairy-chested of the men are brave enough to choose it. Surely, it maybe the most powerful since the 997 years but it doesn't win my heart. Sorry but you have to do better than that...

The 911 GT2 RS were made as a special edition model, with just 500 units ever made worldwide but I'm afraid that it's all gone fast. Who cares about it? Despite being sold worldwide in limited numbers, the 911 GT2 RS is all about exclusivity and ferocity only a true Porsche enthusiast would love.

911 GT2 RS at the Top Gear Studio

Wow, I never realized that you never liked this one despite the fact that it is quick. Why?

Have you seen Jeremy Clarkson's DVD titled Powered Up? You seen the drag race between that and the McLaren MP4-12C? Well, you know why.

Oh...But anyway, that Porsche 911 GT2 RS really is the ultimate beetle in running shoes and I have no doubt that this one's very quick but is it quick?

To find out, let's go to His Excellency, The Stig!



My 911 GT2 RS did it in 1:17.851! You'd never realized that this Porsche really is quick! It's way more fun than the Carrera GT but sadly, both of them are dead.

(awwww)

Welcome Back: 2007 Seat Leon Cupra & 2010 Seat Leon Cupra R

We never seen a Spanish hot hatch driving
around the Top Gear Test Track


The Incredible Stig in his
Incredible Cupra R!

Some say that the Seat Leon is more like the Volkswagen Golf's Spanish cousin but this is a bit more than that. What you see here are a bunch of Seat Leon Cupra models to choose from. If you were to ask "What is the difference between Seat Leon Cupra and Seat Leon Cupra R?", there is a simple answer to that...

About the Leon Cupra:

The SEAT Leon Cupra comes with the 2.0L TFSi engine that produces 241PS of power and a 0-60mph time of 6.4 seconds. It has 18-inch rims, red brake calipers, and a special exhaust, as well as special paint finishes and sport seats embroidered with the Cupra logo.

This car was made using the know-how from their World Touring Car Championship season and little known fact that the Spanish is, in fact, one of the favourites for the WTCC constructors and drivers championship. For SEAT, whose goal is to create sporty cars with cutting-edge design and the latest technology, the arrival of the new Seat Leon Cupra is not just a source of satisfaction and pride; it is also essential.

About the Leon Cupra R:

Debuted at the 2009 Frankfurt Motor Show, the R model is a much tamer version of the SEAT Leon Cupra. The 2.0L TFSi engine, which did come from the regular Leon Cupra, now comes with 265HP of power thanks to Seat Technical Centre that made significant effort into modifying the engine's electronic management system and increasing the maximum turbo pressure.

The Cupra R comes with XDS system that works together with ESP and functions as a self-blocking mechanism. It improves the car's performance when traction is lost by applying braking power to the wheel that loses grip.

So, now you know their differences but what if it's not enough? Let's settle their differences with a bit of a power lap time...







By science and due consideration, my SEAT Leon Cupra did it in 1:33.471 and my Leon Cupra R did it in 1:32.457. I believe that the Cupra R is more of a hardcore for SEAT but it's not more hardcore than its big cousin, the Volkswagen Golf R because unlike the SEAT Leon Cupra R, which is front-wheel drive, the Golf R has 4WD for added traction.

Leopaul's Heaven and Hell: Girls...The ruination of every car show and others...

Another time for my Heaven and Hell segment.

Girls....Girls...Girls...They're a man's fantasy...It's okay though, single men like us are always attracted to lovely ladies...mostly. We always getting that thrill, excitement, and enjoyment every time we see a pretty lady. Some say, The Stig's legs grow tall when he sees a pretty lady. (laughing)

Yeah, it often happens most of the time but as a car addict, hot girls are something you should avoid. Car addicts prefer cars more than women and that's the rule. Why? Why are you car addicts prefer the girls posing around the hottest cars? Why do you like those scantly-clad models moonlighting around car shows, tuning car expos, or auto salons, especially in Tokyo, Beijing, Geneva, Paris, Frankfurt, Manila, Bangkok, or others? This is gone far enough. Boys who have no interest in cars only prefer girls. Boys who have interest in cars should not take high resolution pics of girls. Heh, we shouldn't really focus on girls posing around unless if someone is a female driver.

Surely, I don't take pity on female drivers because they are more responsible, more intelligent, and easier to understand than men. I don't care where did I said that because I don't want to explain why. If a woman drives a car, that's fine but if a woman tends to pose around different kinds of cars shouldn't care at all. Girls are nothing but a ruination of a car show. You know what, maybe in the future, car shows shouldn't need girls because it's TOO SEXUAL and IMMORAL for an exhibition of production cars, concepts, tuning, and others. Girls are nothing more than an expensive waste of time. An expensive resource a committee shouldn't spend on. We don't need them anymore. We don't need girls lollygagging around a certain car show. This is far enough! Who needs girls posing in car shows? Nobody needs them! It's a waste and a total disgrace to the motoring industry.

Let me put it this way, if you see a girl posing around a new car displayed on a certain car show, which of the two do you want to take a picture at? Some say, you want to take a picture of a car because that's part of it but others say you're taking a full body picture of a girl posing next to it because this is much better. Heh, for the car choice, don't be cocky because a hot girl ruined your chance of taking the picture of the full exterior view of the car. Weird, isn't it? When you see a picture of a car with a girl posing next to it, sad to say that you HAVE A RUINED PICTURE OF IT. A poorly photographed memorabilia your wife and kids wouldn't want to keep it. It's better to take a picture of a car with yourself, your friend, your family, or someone with you on it because this is how you make a souvenir from your trip. A good souvenir that never ruined your photo album or your Facebook album if you or your family or your pals were on it. What can I say? That wasn't a bad idea after all but taking full body pictures of "show girls" is not okay. IT'S NOT OKAY!!!! GET IT?!

So there you are. My Heaven or Hell story about "car show girls" and why we, car addicts, don't need them. The upcoming 2012 Busan International Motor Show is this week and a word of advice to all of you in Busan, who's attending this motor show; do please stay away and DON'T TAKE PICS OF GIRLS. Okay? I really don't want to see someone seeing the girls of this year's Busan International Motor Show.

Welcome Back: 2011 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG

One of the best cars you can find on Forza Motorsport 4 was this:

This is a shouty, snarly, tail-happy gullwinged lunatic
that Jeremy Clarkson loves it!

The Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG. There's no denying that it has a hulking presence of a dinosaur at a kindergarten in Telford. It looks great until you open the gullwing doors that made it turned into a colossal showoff. We really like the car's gullwing but there's a bit of a problem. If your height is a bit Richard Hammond-ish, you can't reach the doors to close it but Mercedes-Benz will provide them an optional strap so smaller drivers can close it easily. With the gullwing doors locked, is it safe? Well, that's a dilemma. If you get your car upside down, I'm afraid that there is NO ONE WILL HEAR YOU SCREAMING. That's scary but the SLS AMG's gullwing doors is equipped with some pyrotechnic feature that can blow off automatically when the car is upside down. Well, let's forget about this but anyway, the SLS AMG comes with the M159 V8 DOHC engine that produces 571 PS (420 kW; 563 hp) of power and 650 N·m (480 lb·ft) of torque. It was mated with a MG SPEEDSHIFT DCT 7-speed dual-clutch semi-automatic transmission, which has selectable driving modes such as "C" (Controlled Efficiency), "S" (Sport), "S+" (Sport plus) or "M" (Manual).

It was served as the Safety Car for the Formula One Championship. It made apperances in movies such as The Sorcerer's Apprentice and Transformers Dark of the Moon (as Decepticon Soundwave). This was Jeremy Clarkson's car at Top Gear's Big US Road Trip.

Jeremy Clarkson drove this on his DVD, The Italian Job and despite its loss against the Lamborghini Gallardo LP570-4 Superleggera in Imola, he prefers the SLS AMG as his new favorite.

This car is all about choosing your favorites. As said, Jeremy Clarkson chose the SLS AMG as his new favorite rather than his former favorite, the Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera. It reminds me of the time that I choose something that will be my new favorite and how it compares to my old favorite. One such thing that reminded me that my favorite country was Korea but later my new favorite country is Japan. My favorite iced tea was Nestea but later my latest favorite iced tea was C2, my favorite anime was Negima but moments later, my new favorite was Hayate the Combat Butler. Then, my favorite woman was NHK newscaster Yuko Fukushima but later I ditched her in favor of my new favorite woman who was none other than Doctor Who actress, Karen Gillan. That's how the SLS AMG taught me everything, about choosing the one which could be your newest favorite. Even if your new favorite is not better than your old favorite, you'd still prefer your new favorite and stick with it.

Let's not forget that the SLS comes with sat-nav, stereo, electric seats, and iPod connectivity. Unlike the Ferrari 599 GTO, Pagani Zonda R, and the Porsche 911 GT3 RS, it's not made for earnest men for track days and it's not made to go round corners .0001 seconds faster than the next guy or girl. It was made to make you happy. Clarkson's right. The Germans really made the biggest laugh and a giggle more than speed, more than style, more than anything. That's what matters in a car most of all...

This is a shouty, snarly, tail-happy gullwinged lunatic that Jeremy Clarkson loves it because it's more powerful than the Ferrari 458-just.It's louder than the Lamborghini, and way more fun than the 911 RS GT Turbo 3 S or whatever this new 'ultimate' beetle is called.
