Read somewhere before that the Mazda RX7 FC is inspired by the Porsche 944.

I don't know whether that's true but i'm loving the retro square tail lights and pop up head lamps.

I definitely don't mind owning one of these.

Capella, Cars and Comfort


Had a short getaway at Capella in Sentosa this weekend with my girlfriend. When we arrived at the basement carpark, we saw this mammoth and majestic Rolls Phantom and that set the tone for the rest of our experience at this exclusive hotel.


Spotted some other noteworthy cars. You can read about them in our new mobile blog here.


Capella is a 112 room 6-star resort-styled hotel including 4 historical colonial bungalows built in the 1880s to accommodate British officers.


After a quick and courteous check-in, a lovely lady walked us our room and gave us a run through, with highlights as follows:


Gorgeous view of three cascading swimming pools and the South China Sea.


Porcelain bath tub overseeing said view (albeit more restricted).


Touchscreen controls for launching nuclear missiles the lights, curtains, air conditioning, room service and probably tonnes of other useful functions.


HUGE vanity area. Great for the ladies!


Nespresso machine, iPod dock connected to Bose sound system. There's also a wall-mounted 46 inch LCD tv (you can see part of it lurking on top right hand corner of the picture) Great for me!


But what impressed me most is this handwritten note from the hotel's General Manager Micheal. I can't remember having ever received one from any other hotel.
