Jeremy: Yeah, sounds scary as it seems and what's scaring me is that one part of the SCTEX Highway got destroyed and that makes it also sound scary.
Richard: Whoa! What just happened?
Jeremy: I don't know but blame it to the Maring-Habagat killer combo. Get it? Killer combo.
(audience laughing)
Jeremy: This is serious. Oh and you know what else is scary? Some unrest in Egypt where Morsi supporters vs the government are bashing their heads like the movie 300. Sounds gory but it is. Very.
James: Oh. It seems that this whole unrest is going to last for a long long time, isn't it? Sounds like a civil war, Egypt-style, to me. I wonder if the Pharaohs and the mummies got involved into this unrest?
(audience laughing)
Jeremy: Pharaohs and mummies?
James: It's Egypt stuff.
Jeremy: That's past. We're talking about Arabic Egypt here because things are going messier than what we think. Anyway, enough Egypt unrest.

Richard: Whoa, somebody thought that it's a long week of no classes due to bad weather! Unbelievable. That's the first time I'd ever heard of it but for the some of it. Sorry about that. Some lazy students saying that they're too lazy reviewing for their exams or rather go waste their time playing video games at home or watch Be Careful With My Heart or Ryzza Mae Show or whatever they're doing during the wet Habagat week.
(audience laughing)
Richard: Oh yeah! That reminds me! New info from the world of Gran Turismo 6. As announced at this year's gamescom in Germany, it should be on sale globally this December 6, there's going to be Vision Gran Turismo special machines in collaboration with car manufacturers, design houses, even sports brands like JORDAN and Nike! No joke!
(audience laughing)
Jeremy: Nike? Back in Gran Turismo? If I recalled back in Gran Turismo 4, they collaborated with NIKE, famous for their sports apparels, to create a special concept machine unlockable in GT4. Anyone remember it?
(audience murmuring)
Jeremy: Okay, like you were saying, what's Vision Gran Turismo, Richard?
Richard: As I said, it's a thank-you project in celebration of its 15th birthday and oh! Here's the latest concept clip;
(cheers and applause)
Jeremy: Well, not much to say but...I like this latest trailer! They now had a Viper GTS, the Huayra, the Z8, the R18 TDi, oh! I'm really want that game so bad!
Richard: But...here's the bad news.
(audience laughing)
Jeremy: What bad news?
Richard: I checked on the list of GT5 tracks to be carried over to GT6 and what's shocking is that...The Top Gear Test Track is not part of it!
(audience laughing)
Jeremy: What? No Top Gear on GT6? This is even worse than when the PS3 version of THE iDOLM@STER 2 didn't feature the Punkish Gothic outfit. That's a shame. Guess I should better off pre-order XBOX One and Forza 5 because of Top Gear.
James: But wait! Some bad news! Did you know that Spa-Francorchamps is going to be in Forza 5?
Jeremy: What? Spa-Francorchamps is going to be in Forza 5? Boo...
(audience laughing)
Jeremy: Just as I predicted, when this game comes out and then moments later, I could expect the whole nightmare that is the comparison between GT6 and FM5 using the same car and the same track. I don't want that to happen. That is stupid.
(audience laughing)
Jeremy: And that broke my heart. Think about it, Gran Turismo 6 no longer has Top Gear while Forza 5 remained Top Gear for the sake of fans. Cars featured in FM5 are better looking than GT6. And here's hoping that the Corvette C7 Stingray won't get slip through FM5 or else, it's going to be a big carnage out there. Worse than hanging habagat.
(audience laughing)
Jeremy: What? What was I'm saying?
James: Anyway, enough about that because GREAT NEWS!
(audience laughing)
Jeremy: Here we go again...What?
James: The Dacia Duster...
(audience laughing hysterically)
Jeremy: Oh dear...
James: The Dacia Duster...gets its Nissan twin called the Terrano!
 |
| 2014 Nissan Terrano Indian launch |
Jeremy: Great!
(audience laughing hysterically)
Jeremy: Now, Ferrari has launched a stripped-out high performance version of the 458 Italia, here it is...
 |
| 2014 Ferrari 458 Speciale |
(ooohh)
Jeremy: It's called the 458 Speciale and this high performance version of the 458 Italia is as close as the 430 Scuderia as you can get. It's mid-engined, 0-60 time of 3 seconds, 597bhp of power output, more than the LP570-4 Superleggera Lambo, and I think it's not quite a bad Ferrari for me. One thing I don't like is its looks because it feels like a Scuderia's ghost possessed through the 458.
(audience laughing)
Richard: Well, I got news from Volkswagen because at this year's Frankfurt Motor Show, there's an even hotter Golf out there. Look...
 |
| 2014 Volkswagen Golf R |
(ooohhh)
Jeremy: It's a Golf R, isn't it?
Richard: Yes. This is for those who think the GTi wasn't enough but the new Golf R is the fastest accelerating Golf ever made. It's mated with a 300bhp engine on it, 0-60 time is 5.3 seconds for manual and 4.9 for double clutch. That seems quick and hey, that's going to be the best Golf ever made because...it's got the best of both worlds! Right?
Jeremy: Yeah but still, I prefer the GTi because it feels just right for me.
(audience laughing)
Jeremy: Oh hey! There's a new version of the Audi A8. Here it is...
 |
| 2014 Audi A8 |
Jeremy: Says here that the new A8 comes with the world's first new dimmable headlights called ‘MatrixBeam', made of 25 LEDs per headlamp, engine choices now consist of a more powerful 3.0-litre petrol V6 (305.8bhp, up from 286.1bhp), a twin-turbo 4.0-litre V8 petrol with 429.1bhp, a boosted 3.0-litre TDI V6 with 254.5bhp (up from 246.6bhp), and a 4.2-litre V8 diesel weighing in at 379.8bhp (increased from 345.2bhp), and some added luxury on the inside. What do you guys think?
James: Not quite bad for a flagship Audi but...I still don't like it because it's still look like an Audi.
(audience laughing)
Richard: He's right. It does look like a typical Audi to us!
Jeremy: Yeah, right. Does look like a typical Audi except it's made for rich playboys who want to waste their time at the country club. Oh hey! Have anyone seen the new Monza? What do you think of this concept model?
 |
| 2013 Opel/Vauxhall Monza Concept |
Jeremy: They added some gullwings on it but still it's a massive showoff to us.
(audience laughing)
Richard: Yeah right. Massive showoff like the SLS AMG. I mean imagine if this went upside down, how can he get out from it? Does it have some SLS-like mechanism that blows it doors off?
Jeremy: Uh...no. It doesn't have.
(audience laughing)
Richard: So, you can't get out from this?
Jeremy: Nope. You can't.
(audience laughing)
Jeremy: Anyway, that is the end of the news!
