The 16th IIMS: The Good Stuff
July 24, 2008
I bet everybody is waiting for this one, but unlike two years ago – yes we missed the last year’s IIMS – we’re going to treat this one as a two part entry, so people could give their comments out. So, let’s start out with the things we like from this year’s IIMS.

We always liked big cars like Alphards, Elgrands, or Elysions (except that Hyundai H1), and the latest Alphard is no exception. But we do have doubts with the new Vellfire, though. I think it’s a bit unnecessary.

We also liked how the new Fortuner facelift turned out. Now it is more in-tune with the rest of the Toyota SUV line-up.

Here’s a look on its new rear side.

This is the latest Audi A4, you know, the ones with those sexy new headlights. And there’s another subtle-but-cool feature about this car.

It’s the hubcap. This is what you call a truly functional German design. It gives aesthetics, and protects the bolts at the same time. Oh I’m sorry, I don’t believe riceboys have met with the term “functional” yet.

The Nissan Latio concept car. Sorry Nissan fans, but we like the concept much better than the production model.

The Toyota FT-HS. I’m not sure what the production model would look like, but this will suffice for the moment.

This is the second Suzuki Kizashi concept car, if I’m not mistaken. A bit radical, but more subtle compared to what Mazda has to offer with its concept cars recently. The Kizashi is a good combination between the future and elegance.

The Ford Verve probably will carry the design cues for the next generation of Ford cars.

This is what Rifat Sungkar drives nowadays on the rally track. And yes, it’s way cooler than B 1152 DP.
We also got some pictures of what the next generation trucks would probably look like, such as this Hino:

And this Mitsubishi Fuso:

And finally, look who actually participates in the event…

Congratulations, Tongki!
