Just by hearing the name, we can feel the life of the car itself.

Actually is not been much expectation from the car fans to see a car launched at a fashion show after all. But then again there aren’t many cars are as fashionable as the Fiat 500. On the other day, another limited edition, this time the Fiat 500 by the Diesel breaks was been covered at the Bread & Butter fashion show in Berlin’s state.
The collaboration in between the Fiat and the famous clothing brand that sponsor by the Renzo Rosso also showing off in the “Midnight Indigo” of the blue hue and the 1.3 Multijet II engine with Start & Stop for the first time on a Fiat 500. With the deep blue color is being inspired by the Denim, it had been used of a micaceous rather than a metallic shade offers at the first glance. Plus a finer texture of paint creates 3D-like effect was being added in it.
The Fiat 500 is actually distinguished by an exclusive feature such as 16-inch alloys, a rear strip with fake air intake and the most important was the Diesel logo.

Recently, according to the General Motors there is a deal to sell Opel to parts maker, Magna might have been soured. However these two companies will still have to sit on the same table once again over for this Chevrolet Camaro Convertible version.
General Motors had actually reassigned the contract to Magna when a rival supplier the Germany’s Edscha AG was filled up for the insolvency which according to the sources that was close to the project. Furthermore, the Magna was quite slated to build the Camaro top at its Bowling Green, Kentucky plant with the fabric from its Mexican operations. But the General Motors also stated out some condition such as putting the first year of the Camaro convertible production at about 20000 units which will makes it one of the largest North American ragtop contracts alongside the open top Ford Mustang and also to control the quality of the production.
In North American convertible system production is at its lowest point in years and only 41,380 were built through late November of last year, down from 200,000 four years ago, say industry sources. Therefore, what can be seen were drastic sales declines last year and General Motors’ bankruptcy forced the automaker to kill several convertible programs, which was including the Pontiac Solstice, Saturn Sky and Cadillac XLR roadster. Therefore, it was so good to hear that the al fresco Camaro is going further ahead. Last May, GM spokesman Terry Rhadigan told Automotive News that the Camaro convertible would be ready for production in the first quarter of 2011.
Here we come with the news of the Suzuki SX4 compact crossover that has been reasonably popular in urban areas such as Klang Valley.

Comfort will be improved too, thanks to the cushioned armrests on the doors, additional sound insulation and new design carpets. As the UK version, it gets two engine options of 89bhp/215 Nm Peugeot-sourced 1.6-litre DDiS oil burner and the M16A 1.6-litre which should be familiar to local SX4 owners. In comparison, our own Malaysian-spec SX4 has only just recently been upgraded to an 110hp and 150Nm engine in October 2009 up from a previously weaker 101hp and 140Nm engine.
