The AS5 Cabrio is a fresh air sports car, which is also quick in a tailor-made suit. The technicians at ABT Sportsline ensure this. There are currently four performance increase packages available: with ABT POWER, which is the optimisation of the electronic engine management system, the 2.0 TFSI receives a sporty 275HP (202kW) instead of the serial 180 HP (132kW) or 211HP (155kW). With the 2.7 TDI, 190HP (140kW) become a high-torque 230HP (169kW). With the three litre diesel this is increased to 282HP or 207kW (series standard: 240HP / 176kW). The ABT POWER S technology is also available to the V6 diesel with the largest engine capacity, which also employs an ABT turbo charger. 310HP (228kW) then provide superior handling in all situations, and with 610Nm torque it’s full steam ahead. Logically this power also has to be restrained. The ABT braking unit or ABT sports braking unit correspond to the additional performance potential of the AS5 Cabrio and provide the necessary safety reserves in borderline situations.

I’m not one for your average run of the mill shooter games. I especially don’t like 3rd person shooters.
But this looks AMAZING!
Funny enough, this is set in San Fransisco, being the headquarters of the Galactic Federation of Planets. It seems there are Star Wars fans out there who know a few things about Star Trek.
No, I haven’t seen it (yet) but I am kind of sort of shocked. The movie seems to be a total hit. And not in a Trekkies-only kind of way. A few days ago The Onion put up this news story:
Trekkies Bash New Star Trek Film As ‘Fun, Watchable’
And today userfriendly.org posted a possible reason for this:
Rick Berman ofcourse being the man who put the Borg in just about every episode of Star Trek Voyager and who was personally responsible for the early cancellation of Star Trek Enterprise.
So it seems this movie is a must-see, even if you didn’t like the previous Star Trek movies, because it doesn’t suck.
