Honda Insight Test Drive

Posted By Michael Yip / January, 17, 2012 / 0 comments

Middle of last week, I received an email asking me if I’d like to take a Honda Hybrid car for a test drive with a group of bloggers to Malacca, and deep within me, I felt something skipped a beat thinking that I get to test drive the CR-Z that was launched in 2011… but lo and behold, that’s not it but the 2010 Honda Insight that made it’s first appearance during the KLIM’2010. I figured, heck, why not? right?

The above video is the highlights of the test drive that the bunch of us was invited to, just 3 blokes sharing their opinion about the car (sorry, no pretty ladies in the video). We started off by meeting up with the Honda team at The Bee in Jaya One where the Management of Honda gave us a short briefing on what to expect and what we will experience over the next two days. After that, we formed a team of 3 and get bundled into 5 Insights that was eagerly waiting for us. The people riding with me for the trip was Isaac and Ken and so, away we go! Just a warning, this is a long long post! (more…)

The Best Beer Commercials I’ve seen…

Just want to share some of the best beer commercials I’ve seen so far, mostly online as they don’t allow any alcohol commercials to be shown on local TV stations. What a way to kick start the 2011 Boxing Day with some beautifully done beer advertisements. Right?

Lindsay Lohan Playboy Issue Leaked

Posted By Michael Yip / December, 10, 2011 / 0 comments

If you’ve missed it and is curious about what’s going on with all these Lindsay Lohan chatter, well, her nude photos for the Playboy’s February 2012 issue was leaked and from the look of things, it’s giving everyone the much needed mileage!

“Because of the interest & the Internet leak, we’re releasing the Lindsay Lohan issue early,” Hugh Hefner tweeted Friday, a couple days after the January-February cover of Playboy featuring Lohan leaked online and hours after her entire photo spread starting making the rounds. Definitely a great way to help increase the sales of the magazine that has a dip in it’s readership in the recent years. So what a way to take advantage of the situation and milk her for all she’s got. By the way, anyone coming back from the states? can help me get an issue? (more…)

Posted By Michael Yip / December, 5, 2011 / 2 comments

I’m sure by now, you would realize that the Subaru BRZ and the Toyota GT-86 look quite identical and in fact, they are! Since Subaru and Toyota join ventured into developing this new ride together. Just make you think back to when the AE86 came in two variants, the Levin and the Sprinter Trueno. Two boasting the same power plants with Subaru already announcing that the BRZ will replace the Legacy B4 as the GT300 contender for the coming new season of the SuperGT.

Will Toyota be doing the same and field the Hachiroku in the next SuperGT season as well? Anyway, all that will definitely be revealed soon but for now, let’s check out some videos from youtube. Starting with a video of the GT-86 being revved. (more…)
