The founder of tuning studio GeigerCarsCharles Geiger does not cease to surprise with the works. As it is known, GeigerCars is the only thing the German studio occupying with "bleeding" of exclusivelyAmerican cars. And sometimes this love to stars-striped car industry accepts absolutely freakish forms. The evident certificate of that is Charles Geiger last creation – Hummer H2 Bomber.
Why the car has received such name – "Bomber" – it is necessary to guess only. In this case comparison with any sample of an armour would be the most pertinent, after all the car has lost wheels, and instead of them has got rubber caterpillars of American firm Mattracks. The caterpillar has width of 40 sm and length 150 sm that allows heavy Hummer H2 to move on snowdrifts, sand and other "weak" soils. That is there, where the usual off-road car will instantly sit down on a belly. Under a cowl there is 6,2-litre "eight" capacity of 398 h.p. (574 Nm) with which is aggregated six-step automatic gear box. The car obviously is not intended for conveyance on city streets, but will be ideally suited for rescuers or fans of extreme rest. On a roof "chandelier" Hella is established, in interior there was counter Geigers and navigation Kenwood, and the rear-view camera is behind established.
Hummer H2 Bomber has got matte, silver-white colouring and the image of the beauty on the front doors, executed in stylistics of 40th years of the last century. Similar "babes" decorated fuselages of the of "flying fortresses» the American pilots. All looks it strange enough, especially if to recollect that the American bombers have thrown out not one thousand tons of bombs on heads of peace citizens during the massed touches to the same Munich where tuning studio GeigerCars now is based. But on such "trifles" in present politically correct Germany, similar nobody pays attention. Charles Gejger precisely.
The price and car characteristics traditionally are not disclosed, but, judging by other off-road cars which were equipped with caterpillars Mattracks earlier, the car on asphalt can accelerate momentum to 100 km/h and to 60 km/h on impassability.
As of late, car manufacturers are designing and engineering 4-door vehicles with coupe-like profiles. Cars like the 2011 Jaguar XJ I posted yesterday, the recently unveiled BMW Gran Coupe and Mercedes Benz F800Concept cars, and many others are all aimed at the high-end luxury saloons. A look into the future, a spanish designer named DaniGarcia have come up with his own version of what Audi might have in store for us with his Audi A9 Concept. The A9 is a 4-door concept car proposal for a luxury sports saloon, featuring similar design language as the current Audi models. The front end is very R8-like but with thinner, much more squinted LED headlamps. The Side Profile shows an elegant sloping shape of the green house. Very low with the extra set of rear doors almost blending into the rear quarter of the car. As quoted from diseno-art, the styling of the A9 concept was partially inspired by the stunning architectural style of Santiago Calatrava’s buildings in “La Ciudad de las Artes y de las Ciencias” (The City of Arts and Sciences) in Garcia’s hometown of Valencia. This influence can be seen in the clean flowing lines of the vehicle and futuristic styling features. Calatrava’s buildings look like they come from 100 years in the future, and so does this. Check out the 1/5th scale model. The features that I find the most interesting about this A9 Concept car are the “self-repairing” panels as well as the “electronic painting system” which the user has controls of whatever color he wants the car to be with a simple push of a button. Contrary to my latest Audi R8 GT Spyder rendering, this particular Audi Concept actually makes more sense. Although some of the images reminds me a bit of the BMW Vision Efficient Dynamic Concept, especially the setting, Audi can use a high end sporty 4-dr to compete with competitor’s upcoming models. And this A9 Concept seems to fit the bill. source: DaniGarcia via diseno-art

Eccoci alla seconda parte del nostro incontro con Juliana, addentriamoci in maniera più approfondita nella vita privata e professionale di questa fanciulla proveniente dalla Romania.
Un momento cruciale, di svolta in certo senso, per Juliana, arriva quando decide di partecipare, spinta dal desiderio di rendersi utile al prossimo, ad una sfilata per beneficenza in Romania. In quell’occasione la bella e sensibile Juliana farà la conoscenza di colui che avrà un ruolo determinante nella sua crescita professionale e privata.
Questo misterioso ragazzo, almeno per noi, considerando la discrezione con cui ne parla la fanciulla, proporrà a Juliana di entrare in società ed aprire insieme un’agenzia di moda in Romania. Una relazione che coinvolge questa splendida rumena non soltanto sotto il profilo professionale, ma che sfocierà in un rapporto intenso e sincero.
Juliana nel frattempo si diploma, il lavoro procede a gonfie vele, quando per motivi familiari, decide di seguire sua sorella in Italia. Ormai cittadina italiana da oltre tre anni, questa sensule modella adora il nostro paese. Ovviamente continua la professione di modella, indossatrice ed hostess, d’altronde sarebbe un vero sacrilegio privarci della sua bellezza.Nata nel 1983 a Bucarest, Alina Vacariu è considerata una delle modelle di maggior talento, dotata di una sensualità magnetica ed un fisico dalle forme sexy ed armoniose.
Poco più che quattordicenne, questa splendida ragazza di origini rumene, venne incoronata modella dell’anno in Romania, per l’appunto.
Laureatasi in biologia, in una recente intervista avrebbe dichiarato di essere una ragazza uguale alle sue coetanee con interessi e passioni normali.
Sono passati dieci anni dal suo esordi nel mondo della moda ed Alina è entrata nel pieno della sua maturità artistica. Nel 2003 è stata messa sotto contratto da un importante agenzia di modelle, Elite Model Management.
Diventare una modella quando si posseggono le qualità di questa bellezza proveniente dall’est è sicuramente più semplice ed ostacoli che potrebbero apparire insormontabili per altre, diventano quasi una passeggiata per lei.
Nel 2003 è apparsa nella copertina di Maxim, attualmente lavora per l’agenzia di moda Munich Models.
Una carriera in continua ascesa, ormai molto apprezzata negli USA, e sicuramente meno famosa in patria, dove si sono rassegnati a perla molto presto, a tutto vantaggio di paesi occidentali.

Big car crash. Nothing more to descript. Just watch. From movie "Final Destination 2"!
TRENTON—Peter Conroy has no respect for anyone clocked at 170 km/h on the 401 but that customized 2009 Dodge Challenger was “somebody’s baby.”
The tow truck driver and his helper spent half an hour gingerly inching the low-slung black beauty onto their vehicle’s deck at the side of the highway Thursday afternoon.
The “absolutely extraordinary” vehicle, which Conroy estimated to be worth $100,000, was impounded for stunt racing by police on the prowl for exotic cars heading to Toronto for Gumball 3000. The annual rally from London, England, to New York in seven days is an opportunity for celebrities and other rich folk from around the world to showcase their flashy chariots.
“No chains, no way,” Conroy said as he admired the silent beast tucked safely away in the garage of Larry’s Towing on Friday. “We weren’t going to leave a mark on it. We used ramps and straps and two men, which we’ve never done before.”
That might be some comfort to the owner, a California man who was en route to Gumball’s Thursday night parade through ritzy Yorkville. Well-heeled though he might be, unwheeled is his status now after police suspended his licence for seven days.
The Challenger was stopped around 5 p.m. for doing more than 170 km/h in a 100 km/h zone between Brighton and Trenton, about two hours east of Toronto.
Ontario Provincial Police wouldn’t release the driver’s name, but it’s unlikely he could claim unfamiliarity with Ontario’s speed limits as his defence. Two hours earlier, he was given a ticket and a tongue-lashing after being stopped near Marysville for travelling at 140 km/h, police said.
But the motorist showed no remorse over the highway hijinks as Conroy hoisted the Dodge “ve-r-r-r-y slowly — one foot every 30 seconds, watching it every inch of the way.”
The man, in his 30s, “didn’t care,” said Conroy. “He was in a totally great mood. Maybe it’s a badge of honour to be going so fast that your car is impounded.”
Friends were taking pictures of his “heroic moment” by the car with his thumbs up, he said. “Even the police officer couldn’t believe his cavalier attitude.”
The man just piled into another car with his buddies and took off, Conroy said.
But the unknown driver’s loss is Trenton’s gain — for another six days anyway.
“Every time someone came in today, their jaw just dropped when they saw it,” Conroy said.
It’s being kept inside rather than out in the compound because “anyone creative enough to get these wheels off would make a fortune,” said Conroy, figuring there was $10,000 worth of chrome and rubber. “Someone sank a lot of money into this car.”
Covered with a fine layer of southern Ontario dust, the car was crying out for a bath, Conroy sighed. But fearful of using the wrong shampoo, he settled for a few swipes of the wheel rims with a ShamWow as he aimed some harsh words at the Gumballer.
“It’s irresponsible. I don’t care how good your tires are, how good your engine is. Going 170, you’re a rolling accident.”
