Monday, May 16, 2011. White Car Black Wheels. There is a renaissance of the color white in cars. Not that white was absent as a dealer option, actually it has been there ever since. In the era of metallic paints and fancy mix, it has persistently survived. Recently, I have noticed that luxury rides, sport cars and even exotics are cloth in white paint; this trend has fueled the resurgence. White is the new silver nowadays! There is an even more stunning combination IMHO! Like this classic 911 turbo,.

Tuesday, October 04, 2011. Martini Racing Team Pickup. Racing automobiles are splendid machineries. Fitted with all the bells and whistles to go faster,. Go farther and go for the win! While the racing car has the lead role in a team,. Support vehicles take on the supporting casts. I find amusement in them as well! The equally impressive transporters, trailers and trucks. Are awe-inspiring machineries in their own right. Case in point are the VW pickup trucks that were put. To the public in civilian form.

Wednesday, September 07, 2011. Eye of the beholder. Attraction initially is a result of a superficial desire on the external. We are simply drawn to beauty on face value. What you see as gorgeous on the outside preconditions that, what’s inside is presumed to be the same. It’s hollow, yes, but it is the law of attraction. And that is the flaw of it. Would a plain-Jane of a design be better off? Maybe VW could be thinking along this light, decades back. A queer proportioned coupe? PMA VW Karmann Ghia 1600.

Tuesday, August 02, 2011. The name says it all! Of plastic and diecast series 2. There is a definite purpose in anything we do. An action will cause a proportionate reaction. It is the law of nature. Physics even says so! Basically it has something to do with (well meaning) cause and (well intended) effect too. Thus, many great creations encompass equally great effect on people. When people started creating toys, their perceived purposes were vast. Pure and simple JOY! So too this car brings joy …. HW Fi...

Wednesday, January 05, 2011. One of the reasons, the current Ford Fiesta is such a hit can be attributed to Jeremy Clarkson doing the famous review of it in Top Gear! A review which is witty and wildly creative. The cherry on the cake of course is this awesome segment featuring a mall chase. I can recall vividly how the little stones flew and dust engulfed the car. Ah, those were the days! Now I’m aching too for some Fiesta fun :-). Ok, so where are the Baddies? 8230;…….wrong Corvette!

Friday, March 18, 2011. Setting the record straight. And speaking of how far VW has been to…here is one of the extreme case in point. The Volkswagen W12 Coupe which set 7 world 24-hour speed records at the Nardo Circuit near Lecce, Italy in February of 2002. http:/ www.vwvortex.com/cgi-bin/artman/exec/view.cgi?

Saturday, June 22, 2013. We all have fantastic and fascinating dreams. Automotive wise, gearheads like me have plenty of them. From your ultimate car model, be it a classic or modern, we fantasize about having that in our garage. My dream garage would be definitely an assortment of wonderful Porsches. These would include the early 911 (901) and other evolutionary variants among others. As we celebrate the 50. Anniversary of the 911 evolution, featured are two 911 I love to have in 1:1 scale.

Ecm: Gearhead’s View of Autumn in Japan

Saturday, November 15, 2014. Gearhead’s View of Autumn in Japan. We’re back in the land of the rising sun, this time for the autumn season. Wonderful colors of foliage are a delight to see! Definitely Japan’s autumn offering is second only to the cherry blossoms spectacle in March. As a gearhead and enthusiast, travelling also gives me another visual treat – that of cars, diecasts and bicycles. Wonderful retro scene, the old district of Japan and the Neu-Beetle (photographed in Kyoto). Kyosho released a ...
