GUESS, the denim-based lifestyle brand collaboratw with legendary
DJ and producer Tiësto to include a new range of apparel for men and women as
well as accessories. GUESS branded performances around the world will also
continue.
Beginning in May, the new GUESS / Tiësto collection will
be available in GUESS stores. The inspiration for the 35 piece line for women
and men continues to come from the energy and excitement of electronic music
performed live.

women in shimmering neutral colors and spring-weight coated fabrics for tops,
which give a modern edge to this summer club capsule. Design details such as
studding, stitching and zippers feature prominently. The graphics on tees and
tanks come from digital and geometric contemporary art and are album
cover-worthy.
Sunglasses are perfect for outdoor gigs, available in an
oversized aviator style for women with metal and jeweled embellishments, and in
a squared aviator for men with metallic accent on top bar and temples. A
super-sexy heel and a wedge sneaker are offered for women and leather high-tops
for men. The men’s watch in stainless steel combines sporty features in the
collection’s signature electric blue.
Everything is detailed and trimmed with the custom GUESS /
Tiësto logo. Also continuing in 2013 are GUESS branded performances by Tiësto around
the world. The next is in Dubai

| Ferrari F12berlinetta one of the Fastest Road Cars |
Last week was really busy, my F1 fever started since Wed 20th

events in conjunctions with the Formula One Grand Prix. Everyone in town is busy
busy busy…

The much anticipated Ferrari F12berlinetta, one of the
fastest road cars produced by the legendary Italian supercar maker, officially debuted
in Malaysia on 21st March 2013 with a spectacular launch event held by
NAZA Italia Sdn Bhd in Zebra Square, Kuala Lumpur.
The F12berlinetta is one of
the most powerful and high-performance road-going supercars ever offered by the
Prancing Horse, second only to the recently built LaFerrari (unveiled at the
Geneva Motor Show 2013).
Ferrari F12berlinetta
Base Price is RM 1,288,800.00
On
The Road Price is +/- RM 3,300,000.00
There are also two new colours developed only for this model - Rosso Berlinetta and Aluminium.

The product of the collaboration between the Ferrari
Styling Centre and Pininfarina, the F12berlinetta’s design centres on the car’s
remarkable balance of aerodynamic efficiency and elegant proportions.
Adorned
with sleek, powerfully sculpted lines, its innovative style features elements
typical of Ferrari 12-cylinder styling cues.
The F12berlinetta effortlessly marries extreme performance
with benchmark efficiency and Italian flair. It’s also the first in a new
generation of Ferrari V12s that have reduced fuel consumption and CO2 emissions
by an impressive 30 percent – a result achieved through extensive research and
development which focused on efficiencies of the whole vehicle: engine,
aerodynamics, tyres and weight.
Front mid-engine with blazing speed. Sporting a new 740hp
(730bhp) mid-front V12 engine that delivers 690 Nm of torque (80% of which is
readily available at 2500rpm), the F12berlinetta is built around highly evolved
transaxle architecture that has been revolutionized to match the car’s more
extreme performance and features state-of-the-art components and control
systems.
Its engine, dashboard and seats have both been lowered,
the wheelbase is shorter and a new suspension and gearbox layout have enabled a
more compact rear. The outcome is a lower, narrower and shorter vehicle than
its predecessor and, coupled with a chassis constructed from 12 different
alloys of aluminium (some of which are being used for the first time in the
automotive sector), the F12berlinetta is 70kg lighter with an increase of 20
percent in torsional rigidity.
The F12berlinetta has set a lap time of just 1’23’’ at
Fiorano and covers 0-100 km/h in 3.1 seconds and 0-200km/h in 8.5 seconds. Its
aerodynamics have been honed to the extreme, developed in harmony with its
styling and discreetly integrated with a host of innovative solutions to
provide an avant-garde design that redefines classic Ferrari themes.
Among
these are the Aero
Bridge
