MMM: 2009 Ralliart Mitsubishi Galant

I used to like Mitsubishi’s, particularly the old school L200 pickups and the Galant with the weird embedded bonnet, but they went off around the time the last generation Colt with the teatray spoiler came out, and then followed it up with the hugely hugly WTC Lancers.

I like this though, despite it’s relative ordinariness. And because it’s a Ralliart, it has a stonking (sorry) great 3.8 litre V6 under the bonnet. Maybe Mitsubishi is back on track.

Note the tracks on the ground and the angle of the wheels btw. Someone’s been naughty. :)

MMM: Bajaj Pulsar

Autoblog and several others seem to think this is “awesome”, I don’t see it meself. But since I’m all about my fans*, here it is, just for you.

The bike is crap too, imho. Although I like the way they got “SPA” into the video.

MMM: SSC Ultimate Aero

I hadn’t even heard of this car before Jalopnik told me it’s now certified by Guinness World Records as the fastest production car at a two-run average of 256.19 mph. Only $585,900 on eBay!

SSC stands for Shelby SuperCars by the way. Yes, that Shelby. I’m not a fan, with the sole exception of the Cobra. I’ll stick with the Lamborghini or the Koenigsegg if it’s all the same with you.

MMM: Aston Martin Rapide

Lovely as the Rapide is – although the name is very Skoda-like – you have to wonder if Aston Martin is going to chase the coat tails of the DB9 into infinty, or actually come up with a new design at some point.
