| Rolls-Royce Ghost – Six Senses Concept Posted: 23 Apr 2012 11:06 PM PDT As if the name “Ghost” did not garner enough attention already, luxury car maker Rolls-Royce Motor Cars is pushing the definition of what an experience should be with its Rolls-Royce Ghost Six Senses Concept. Unveiled on the exhibition floor of 2012 Beijing Motor Show (aka 2012 Auto China), the concept helps to romanticize the experience of riding in a Rolls-Royce and classify them into Sight, Sound, Aroma, Taste, Touch, with the final “sense” being that of Emotion. Sounds like a brilliant marketing ploy at first, that is till you delve into the description of each sense by Rolls-Royce artisans after the jump…

| Posted: 23 Apr 2012 08:59 PM PDT A few days ago we brought two new bags from Nitraid decorated with their popular Dope Forest pattern and now Tokyo’s edgy streetwear brand is offering up another tongue-in-cheek piece in honor of Mary Jane with the Budskull T-Shirt. The large printed skull motif is relatively straightforward from afar, but up close you’ll notice that its almost nothing but the special herb. The shirt arrives in a grey, black, or white 100% cotton Tee with a touch of branding just below the chin. You can pick up any of these colors at Nitraid dealers worldwide and on their online store now.

| Nike SB Eric Koston 1 x Air Max 90 | Preview Posted: 23 Apr 2012 08:31 PM PDT After the release of Eric Koston x Kobe Bryant collaboration last May, speculations surfaced soon about a follow-up project by Nike SB and Koston himself. Those speculations came to fruition today as both participants unveiled the first glimpses of the upcoming Nike SB Eric Koston 1 x Air Max 90 hybrid. Though initial line sheet images leaked to the public sometime last month, the actual images, with the Lunarlon cup sole and Air Max 90 heel “shield” in Infrared colorway, are the clearest indications that these will be available sometime this year. Perhaps as a May release as well…?

| Mercedes-Benz Viano Vision Diamond – Luxury Van Posted: 23 Apr 2012 03:30 PM PDT One possible silver lining from the demise of Maybach premium brand (and the subsequent $100,000 in rebate to customers) was Mercedes-Benz‘s realization of its dominance in the ultra-luxury vans market sector. Its Sprinter van is already a favorite mode of transport for dignitaries and celebrities like Blue Ivy Carter. Now with the introduction of its new mid-size Viano line, Mercedes-Benz wasted no time to unveil its bespoke variant, the Viano Vision Diamond. In its custom two-tone appearance, blacked-out front grille, and special rims, one doesn’t drive the Viano Vision Diamond but gets chauffeur in one. The custom paint job of Black and Diamond White continues onto the interior, where the driver compartment is in black and spacious passenger compartment is in white. Two stretch out seats with heating, cooling, and massage functions dominate the passenger area. Holders for Champagne flutes and wine cooler nestle nicely in between them. Separating the front and back is a glass partition that doubles as a stowaway entertainment system with Bang & Olufsen "BeoLiving Viano" sound system plus a 40-inch flat screen TV, all operated by either Apple iPad 2 or iPhone 4. Finally, to cater to the Nouveau riche of China, 8 diamonds are embedded into the interior trim to signify the Chinese lucky number “8″.

| Jeep Wrangler – “Dragon” Design Concept Posted: 23 Apr 2012 01:30 PM PDT Jeep‘s foray deeper into the Chinese auto market with their Dragon Design Concept Wrangler isn’t just some superficial, half effort job; they went all out at the 2012 Beijing Auto Show with powerful dragon decals and a series of bronze and gold accents and interior upgrades. Based on a blacked out standard Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon, the silhouette is accented with gold detailing in the grille slats, headlamp ports, fuel door bolts, branding, and engine cover along with a dragon decal that slithers its way from the hood down along the side of the cabin where it meets another on the spare tire cover. A laser-etched dragon pattern on the face of the head restraints and gold snakeskin seats complete the interior make-over. While Jeep meant for the Dragon to stand alone as a concept, if demand is strong enough you can be sure they will put it into production; just don’t count on getting your hands on one State side. via: autoblog

| Bentley Mulsanne Diamond Jubilee Edition Posted: 23 Apr 2012 12:30 PM PDT In a celebratory occasion, premium automaker Bentley Motors marked the opening of China’s largest Bentley dealership with another joyous affair, the unveiling of Bentley Mulsanne Diamond Jubilee Edition in honor of Her Majesty’s 86th birthday. With just 60 production units available around the globe, each of the edition represents the 60 years reign of Great Britain’s ruling monarch, HM Queen Elizabeth II. Driven by a twin-turbo V8 engine capable of 505 horsepower and 752 lb-ft of torque, the Bentley Mulsanne Diamond Jubilee Edition is able to cruise from naught to 60 mph in just 5.1 seconds. Yet it is loaded with amenities usually associated with royalty. Fashioned by the same team of artisans that crafted the Official State Limousine for HM The Queen, the vehicle is a prime example of Bentley’s bespoke tradition, which traces back to H. J. Mulliner & Co.’s royal carriages in 1760. Quilted leather lined the entire interior with gold embroidered silhouettes of the royal carriage as the edition’s special emblem. Exclusive gold stitching, veneered picnic tables, and polished metal hardware all to accentuate the edition’s exclusivity. As for a final touch, each vehicle comes with a set of quilted leather pillows bearing the same golden royal carriage motif. Available as a special order item through Bentley’s dealers near you and if you have to ask for the price, it is likely you will not able to afford it.
