The SLS AMG has landed in Singapore

IN Mercedes-Benz, SLS, AMG, Mercedes, Supercar, Red

Mercedes-Benz's Ã¼ber sports car is here. Perched gorgeously on the revolving platform at the Mercedes-Benz Center with its gullwing doors wide open, the SLS AMG is ready to dazzle.

On the move, the dimensions of the 5 Series felt as though it was shrunken, with the car's suspension and engine providing a confidence inspiring drive, belying it's size which is by far the biggest 5 Series ever in the model's history. Though the car looks visually more compact, the wheelbase in reality has been increased by more than three inches. Prodding the accelerator, the car surges forward with no hint of turbo lag. The throttle response impressively quick and sensitive with nary a hint of jerkiness and the car going from 0 to 100 in just 6.1 seconds.

Shell Pit Stops Across The Island!

IN Shell, V-Power, Power 98

Shell brings the night race experience to consumers this September with pit stops across the island.

The effects of the typhoon included mudslides and other damage within the grounds of Fuji Speedway, and although reconstruction work is under way, there has also been severe damage to roads in the vicinity of the Speedway. It has become evident that attempting to hold the race as scheduled under such conditions would not only be an imposition on the spectators attempting to come to the race, it could also seriously hinder the work of the local authorities and citizens to recover quickly from the typhoon damage. As such, the Oyama Town authorities has made a request to cancel the race.

End of term | Mazda RX-8

We bid farewell to the demo car that never materialised...

Fully stock inside and out, just the way I like it. Mk V Golf still handsome to look at and classy in its own right. After all, it's the car that put VW back into the swing of things - pardon the pun.

Project VW R32 V6

It was down to a 350Z or an R32 in my quest to own a V6. Both are great cars, but as I placed my mind over my heart, the choice was clear.

Amongst the Laguna range of vehicles in the Renault stable, the Coupe is definitely the most stylish, as compared to its hatchback and sedan siblings. Though many (usually the automotive purists) may scoff at its attempt at being a pseudo Aston Martin, those in general would probably appreciate and fall in love with the car, which means a job well done for the designer. But has the designer done much then? There is a saying that goes along the lines of 'Less is more', and for the Laguna Coupe, Renault has managed to achieve that with its clean lines.
