To stand a 6,200km long of journey, we need a not-so-ordinary people movers or I just say phenomenal vehicle to complete. Thats why this beast is born. To conquer the hidden secrets of Siberia.

Using most slightly the same features of Cayeene S, but modified intensely to make sure it won't fail in hte middle of the mission. 385bhp (283kW) 4.8L naturally aspirated V8, Don't you think it is enough?

"The journey will kick off in Moscow on the 2nd of August, crossing numerous public roads, gravel tracks, icy rivers and the Gobi desert, before finishing up at Ulaanbaatar in Mongolia on the 17th."

Good luck guys!

Coming this september, Europe will have a new family in their minicar family. Set to be unveiled at Frankfurt Auto Show later this year, and expected to go on sale by mid 2008.

"...will be able to seat two passengers up front with space available for a small child behind the driver’s seat."

Concept no more, production we go!


Wish it will look like this.

I love this one. Kudos to those people who make it happen. Definitely you guys have open the "path" for "us" to further explore the possibilities of this macho-looking 4WD head-honcho-wannabe. See them at 2007 Commercial Vehicle Show.

"The team at Toyota (GB) has created the pick-up as a one-off special and it is the first LCV-based concept to be shown by Toyota in the UK. The 3.0-litre D-4D diesel engine has a Toyota Motorsport power upgrade that increases output from 169 to around 200bhp. And with the addition of monster 22-inch alloy wheels, a sport trucktop, chrome-finished grille and B-pillars, tinted windows and lights and a special-design front guard, this unique Double Cab model has macho looks to match its grunt."

Great work guys. Surely this one will be a cool "prototype" for others Hiluxian here or where-ever they hail from.

Don't you see this beauty burning hot with fierce flame of pheonix-fire? Chip Foose really the "chief" special one. Double kudos to all you guys who deliver this awesome looking monster.

Those 22-inch wheels do rawk it hugely. Powered by 450-horsepower supercharged Triton V8 that churn out 500 foot-pounds of torque at 4,000 rpm. Awesome right?

...making it the most powerful Ford F-150 since the 2004 Ford SVT Lightning.

Expected to be ready, early next year. Be well prepared.

No question about Felipe Massa's brilliant effort to stay cool right from the P1 until he completes all 57lap, second to none. Erasing the hero-to-zero Sepang massacre he's experiencing a week before. Team mate Kimi Raikkonen complete the "champagne" shower trio by finishing third best. Well done Felipe, Kudos to Ferrari.But "he's" done it again. Yupp, I refer to 2nd placed young Briton Lewis Hamilton who maintain his podium celebration, third time from 3 Grand Prix. Awesome huh? This time, without his team mate, reigning world champion Fernando who finishes fifth. Behind another performer of the day, Nick with his BMW, pipping Mr Fernando in what the commentator claim as the best-ever overtaking manouvre of the day. I very much agree.

Off to Europe!!

p\s - I'm having too much "race".. on TV
