This sports complex very similar looking to the Burj Al Arab Hotel at Dubai.

Teen Fest 2K 2010 Mid Valley Convention Centre

Location : Mid Valley Convention Centre
Event : Teen Fest 2K 2010


At the Mid Valley Convention Centre and stop by and have a look at the Teen Fest 2K event held there.

The star studded celebrity for the event include the Hong Kong megastar Ekin Cheng from the movie Storm Warriors.

The Kementerian Perdagangan Dalam Negeri Koperasi Dan Kepenggunaan is also having Kempen Cegah Cetak Rompak and Jualan Barangan Ori beside the Teen Fest event.

Which one is original? 

Many online game developers setting up their booth at the Teen Fest.

The stage for the event.

This Teen Fest should call Game Fest as I only saw online game and computer games booth. Is that all that teens today do? Play video games!

This the online game inspire by the movie Storm Warriors and endorsed by Ekin Cheng. Apparently he will be coming to sign autographs for the fans.

Sony PS3 set up a huge booth to promote their products and the newly launched Sony Playstation Move.

The game concept similar to the Nintendo Wie and player will have to use motion to play the game. A useful gadget for teens nowadays to get off the couch.

Many models cum promoters dressing up as characters from the games.Kind of like the character from Japanese Manga comic books.

The New Mitsubishi ASX Review

Car : Mitsubishi ASX
Capacity : 2.0 litre
Price : RM139,980

Mitsubishi need some new injection for their passenger car section since the launch of the Proton Inspira and therefore the newly launched Mitsubishi ASX add up to the line of vehicles they have for sale in Malaysia. First impression, the ASX have the features of the lancer especially for the signature front grill.

The side view.


I like the interior with full black design. Very classy and of course very durable for long term use. 

Black nappa leather.

t
The finishing on the door control panel was tastefully done.

One thing not quite right with the ASX is the size of the rim. Seem too small for this kind of vehicle especially for Mitshubishi.

No HID.

The pearl white with body kit is very tempting.

The sports edition come with chrome side signal light cover.

The sport edition rear view.

 In short, not much to talk about for the new ASX but it add an extra choice for the Malaysia consumer when buying a new car. The talk of the town now still the Proton Inspira with its very affordable pricing.

The New Proton Inspira Review

Car : Proton Inspira 2.0GT
Price : Rm91,999 OTR


Excited to hear that Proton already launched their new Proton Inspira ( aka Mitsubishi Lancer copy ). I dropped by the Puchong Proton showroom and already there are mountain of people catching their sights at the hot new Proton Inspira. At first, I warmed up my excitment with a 1.8 CVT maroon colour Proton Inspira parking outside the showroom. My first impression was that the front bumper design not as agressive and appealing as the Lancer GT.

The rear not much difference from the Lancer.

The vehicle come with Continental ContiComfort 205/60R16. Looking at the size of the tyre, Proton going for comfort with this vehicle.

Inside the showroom is the 2.0GT version. It comes with leather seat, body kit and spoiler.

Almost identical with the lancer. Direct copycat.

The 2.0 aluminium MIVEC engine.  



Many buttons to play with.

 This photo demonstrate the Inspira boot space. Personally nothing to shout about as this more to a performance car than a family car.

One thing I will consider to modify is the front bumper to make it more agressive look.


Sample of body kit for your consideration. 

A must change for the car fanatic. The rear light with LED. Cool looking. In conclusion, I believe the price for Inspira is fantastic and it certainly hot up the local car market and also the acessories for those modify car craze people.
