Hey, hey, hey! The latest Subic Bay Auto Show will be opening its doors on April 28! Only a few more days, so get ready to drive to Subic! Take a look at the pictures I took last year when I was lucky enough to be in the Philippines to cover the Subic Bay Auto Show!

Entrance fee is P50 and the car show starts at 4pm, and is across the Subic Bay Yacht Club. If you’ve ever been at SBMA, it’s at the Kart area so there should be a lot of space for show cars.

Last year the car show continued until the late hours so get some sleep before going! I’m just hoping the fashion show – bikini contest is better than last year. I think this part of the program was the weakest due to not having a lot of contestants and they were a bit shy. The car show was good, especially when it got dark because the lights created some good mood pictures.

Report on Hot Import Nights Manila 2012. First Days Coverage.

After eating at the hotel’s complimentary breakfast buffet, I had a few hours left before I had to go to the World Trade Center and watched some anime in my room. I was impressed. There were a few channels dedicated to only Anime. Around 11am in the morning, I had all my gear and went down to the lobby. There was a taxi parked outside of the glass door and I slipped right into the seat next to the driver.

“World Trade Center, please” I said. Then I started asking him to turn on the meter. At this point, the meter was at 300 pesos. The taxi didn’t move. The meter didn’t change. 300 pesos was still there. I kept on telling him, I want the meter on. After a few minutes of repeating that I wanted the meter, I was told flat out that he wouldn’t take me. Fine.

I got out and another taxi picked me up just as I left the first taxi.

Where should I start? From the beginning I guess. I arrived early when all the vendors and car clubs were just setting up shop. To think this was the first time I’ve been back to the Fairplex since… I don’t know, when was the last import tuner car show held here? I think it was 2009. I had a few hours before the crowds arrived so I started taking pictures. Noticed where the restrooms were and the locations of the water fountains – free water!

Taking pictures was the fun part. Saw a lot of familiar faces and car clubs. From LowNSlow, Team Arkan, Team Hate, Import Fashion, itsjdmyo and Savini. The first few hours I aimed to take car pictures only. It was easy because the import models hadn’t arrived yet.

Had to order some drinks because I was thirsty. Didn’t like the Mango shake – tasted weird. The food prices were just expensive. Should have tried to bring in some skittles or something as a snack.

The stage events timing seemed a bit off. That’s why I missed capturing some bikini and go-go events. Basically I got tired of waiting and went back to take more pictures on the floor. My bad luck that I was told they started a few minutes after I left!

Hot Import Nights – Nightshift was still good. I can’t wait for the next one to appear in southern California!

Taking a picture of this NSX.
