Let's Do The News (March 17, 2012)

Okay, the news. Before we begin, let's start with something for the IDOLM@STER-loving petrolheads in Japan. Seems that this new IDOLM@STER project is actually "there's an app for that". Yep, we're not joking because THE IDOLM@STER is coming on the iPhone under the banner of "THE IDOLM@STER MOBILE i"

The IDOLM@STER MOBILE i

Anyway, let's start...

2013 Audi R8 teaser

Seems that the Audi R8 has been for five years and some say, they will be launching the new 2013 Audi R8 soon. When they say new, they would probably meant that it would be a minor change for the Audi's flagship exotic.

So what do we expect for the 2013 Audi R8? Can't tell but moving on...

Anyway, the Aventador J, a one-off special as seen on the 2012 Geneva Auto Show...

2012 Lamborghini Aventador J

There was already one lucky person bought one and this will be served in about six weeks. Too bad for those who wished one and thank you very much for the interest with the Aventador J.

Anyway, recognition-wise, Lamborghini dishes out the numbers of how many recognition, impressions, and clicks about the Aventador J such as 21.5 million organic Google searches, "Aventador J - The Making Of" Youtube video is the most popular show-week Youtube sportscar video in the "Auto and Vehicles" category, Autoweek awared this as a Best of Show winner, over 6,800 tweets and over 40 million impressions.

Well done, Lamborghini, well done.

Anyway, the GMC Terrain is now on its 2013 model year and it gets better because it introduces a new model which expands the brand's Denali range. The 2013 GMC Terrain Denali.

2013 GMC Terrain Denali

Oh yes! When you say Denali, it probably meant to be fully blinged-up versions of GMC vehicles and this version for the Terrain is no exception because of the Denali grille on the front. It's the smallest Denali crossover you can have and also all 2013 Terrain models do come with the new 3.6L V6 engine that churns out 301HP of power and 369Nm of torque. It replaced the 3.0L V6 engine you know. Don't worry thought that those 2.4L Ecotec engines remain the same for the 2013 model year. These would come out in the Summer of 2012.

If that come out, I would be guessing that this is somewhat a Philippine smuggler's fantasy.... Ooohhhh.....

2013 Subaru BRZ

2013 Toyota 86

Anyway, the Toyota 86 and the Subaru BRZ, production of both of these FR sportscar has been commenced at some plant at Gunma Prefecture, Japan.

When we say Gunma, we surely meant that this is the home ground of Mt. Haruna (named Mt. Akina at the Initial D series). Those two can be perfect enough to drift through the asphalt spaghetti of Mt. Haruna and because production of these two were started, that is good news but those employees need to work fast in order to meet the demand for the Toyota 86 (GT86 in Europe) and Subaru BRZ.

Okay, I just read the news...

Seems that the world's ugliest dog, whose named after a Star Wars character, Yoda, died. That seems sad to see the end of 2011's world's ugliest dog.

Anyway and that's the news!!!
