The new Mazda 5 has a few modifications worth mentioning and I will start with what we see on the outside. You can now choose power sliding doors and the dampers are changed a bit. The interior the mid panel with the dashboard functions was redesigned and include a DVD navigation system and a touch screen display.
Now that I got to the part that I enjoy the most, performance, you should know it’s not just the looks that will change on the 2008 model. Mazda 5 is now powered by a MRZ 2.0-liter engine with electronic throttle and sequential valve timing, and features two types of transmission to choose from. One is a 6-speed manual and the other one is a 5-speed automatic.

Conan O'Brien may have scored himself a $45 million package to walk away from NBC, but that didn't stop the pompadoured comedian from milking more money out of the peacock network.
During Wednesday night's episode of the "Tonight Show," O'Brien had no qualms ruffling some executive feathers when he introduced a new character to the short-lived show.
"For the rest of the week, we're going to introduce new comedy bits that aren't so much funny as they are crazy expensive," he said before revealing a $1.5 million Bugatti Veyron.
"There it is, the most expensive car in the world … dressed as a mouse," he boasted as the Rolling Stones' song "Satisfaction" played in the background.

The company said last week that it is recalling 2.3 million of the affected models, in which the gas pedal can stay depressed or return to quickly to idle - the latest in a string of quality problems that have bedeviled the Japanese automaker.
The recall affects the 2009-2010 RAV4, the 2009-2010 Corolla, the 2009-2010 Matrix, the 2005-2010 Avalon, the 2007-2010 Camry, the 2010 Highlander, the 2007-2010 Tundra and the 2008-2010 Sequoia.

The problem: The accelerator can stick when it's pushed down. “Our investigation indicates that there is a possibility that certain accelerator pedal mechanisms may, in rare instances, mechanically stick in a partially depressed position or return slowly to the idle position," Irv Miller, a group vice president for Toyota Motor Sales, said in a press release.

2010 Honda CBR1000RR Sport MotorcycleThe new 2010 model adds engine changes that provide an even smoother power delivery.
New for 2010 Honda CBR1000RR
- Increased-diameter flywheel for more inertia and improved performance.
- Redesigned license plate stay for easier removal on track days.
- New muffler cover for enhanced appearance.
- Exciting new colors: Pearl Orange/Light Metallic Silver and Red/Black. C-ABS model available in Black only.
Engine/Drivetrain
- Compact, liquid-cooled DOHC 16-valve 999cc four-stroke inline four-cylinder engine features bore and stroke dimensions of 76mm x 55.1mm.
- Removable cylinder block with Nikasil-coated cylinders.
- Sixteen-valve cylinder head features 30.5mm intake and 24mm exhaust valves with a 12.3:1 compression ratio for efficient combustion and high horsepower.
- Larger titanium intake valves create a lighter valve train and feature double-spring design for optimum performance at high rpm.
- Intake ports use latest shot-peening technology that improves power and torque characteristics.
- Cam-pulser location between the middle cylinders allows a narrower cylinder head and frame.
- Direct shim-under-bucket valve actuation system ensures high-rpm durability and allows 16,000-mile valve maintenance intervals.
- Forged-aluminum thin-domed, high-strength pistons feature molybdenum coating for reduced friction.
- Lightweight nutless connecting rods.
- Iridium-tip spark plugs improve fuel combustion and performance.
- Dual Stage Fuel Injection (DSFI) (see Technology Section).
- 46mm throttle bodies feature Denso injectors with lightweight valving for faster reaction time and 12 holes per injector to optimize mixture atomization, combustion efficiency and power.
- Auto-enriching system is integrated into Programmed Fuel Injection (PGM-FI) module, eliminating the need for a manual choke.
- Idle Air Control Valve (IACV) minimizes torque reaction and smoothes response to small throttle changes through gradual reductions of air and fuel intake when the throttle is opened and closed.
- Ignition Interrupt Control system works with IACV and FI mapping to enhance driveability.
- Smaller and lighter ECU provides two 3-D fuel-injection maps for each cylinder and two 3-D ignition maps for cylinder pairs, creating ideal fuel mixture and spark-advance settings for superb rideability.
- MotoGP-derived twin-tunnel ram-air system allows a high volume of cooler air to the 9.7-liter airbox for linear power delivery and incredible engine performance.
- Butterfly valves inside the ram-air ducts open and close depending on throttle opening and engine rpm for optimum performance.
- Compact, low-mount exhaust system design reduces rear bodywork size and incorporates exhaust valve and catalyst, contributing to significantly improved mass centralization, and reducing roll and yaw inertia.
- High-capacity radiator incorporates twin cooling fans and allows a more compact cowl for reduced drag coefficient.
- Maintenance-free automatic cam-chain tensioner.
- Starter gears located on the right side to produce narrow engine that allows for increased lean angle.
- Patented slipper-clutch design uses a center cam-assist mechanism for easier actuation. Unlike an ordinary slipper clutch where the pressure plate moves from side to side, the Honda clutch moves both the center cam assist and the pressure plate to provide additional slipper effect.
- Nine-plate clutch is compact and tough, featuring durable friction plate material.
- Durable #530 O-ring-sealed drive chain.
Additional Features
- Iconic Honda Wing tank badge.
- Lightweight aluminum sidestand.
- Handlebars are repositioned forward for excellent ergonomics.
- High-capacity 400-watt AC generator (non-Combined ABS model).
- High-tech instrument display features tachometer and LCD readouts for speedometer, coolant temperature, odometer, two tripmeters, clock, mpg, average fuel consumption and reserve fuel used.. A low-fuel LED light and shift-indicator light are located above the LCD.
- Line-beam headlight features two-piece reflector design utilizing two H7 bulbs for optimum light distribution and unique compact design.
- LED taillights for lighter weight and improved appearance.
- Front turn signals integrated into folding aerodynamic mirrors.
- Plastic tank shell cover protects tank and airbox.
- Convenient ignition switch/fork lock for added security.
- Convenient push-to-cancel turn-signal switch.
- Maintenance-free high-capacity battery.
- Transferable one-year, unlimited-mileage limited warranty; extended coverage available with a Honda Protection Plan.

2010 Toyota Hilux Invincible Double Cabs
Toyota must be enjoying the news that Reykjavik-based Arctic Trucks has now begun offering tours through the Icelandic landscape in Toyota Hilux vehicles for an extreme tourist experience similar to that of Clarkson's.
Reykjavik-based Arctic Trucks, the specialist company which engineered the Hilux to cope with the extreme conditions of the Top Gear challenge, is offering trips of between two and five days and longer expeditions through the wild landscape of Iceland. Its fleet of vehicles includes two Toyota Hilux Invincible Double Cabs equipped with special features to meet the demands of tackling the country`s tundra, glaciers, lava fields and mountains, including a set of giant 38-inch tyres that allow the vehicle to traverse deep snow and thin ice.
The Hilux Invincible Double Cabs come with 38-inch tires able to grind through deep snow and drive over iced surfaces.

Arctic Trucks is the engineering firm which specially tuned the Toyota Hilux that Clarkson used for his excursion to the magnetic North Pole.
The company began a partnership with Toyota Iceland back in 1990 to help convert models to handle the most rugged terrain in the country. The company has prepared vehicles for trips to both the South and North Poles.
More than 12 million Hilux have been sold globally since its 1972 debut, and in terms of annual sales it ranks as Europe`s most popular pick-up.
