    hehe... cool, thanks for the info! A friend has mentioned the other day about cool new spot to (hangout/lounge/bar/club) called AutoSport, heard of it? Just by the name of the place, I imagined an automotive theme layout or an automotive shop If so, that'd be awesome!

    I've been reading around in this forum, and several members here mentioned about Cebu starting to flow in with exotic cars. Since I'm in the automotive industry and work mostly with exotic/high-end vehicles. I sure would love to at least spot one in the street, even better meet a few owners themselves

    Salamat kaayo bai...

    you may try Holiday Plaza located along Fuente Osmeņa. I've been there so many times... Ok ang food, free breakfast at around 1500-1700 per night...

    *BHANE
    Pag punta ko ulit dun hanapin ko yang AutoSport na mention mo.

    Happy trip bro...

    oppss my mistake, the place is called "The AutoShop"

    I checkout Holiday Plaza for availability and rates, seems like they are over booked for the month, must be a good place to stay.

    Thanks dude!

    Im here in Ayala at one of the net cafes, since the resort im staying at over Marigondon has no internet access. I will try and check out AutoBox in Mandaue. I did visit BMW of Cebu 2 days ago, pretty cool stuff. So far no sighting of a single exotic car here in Cebu. I do have a Ferrari Owners meeting in Rockwell/Makati in a few weeks, that should be exciting. So far so good, Cebu is still a beautiful place, not only that sige lang busog, lami kaaayo pagkaoon From what my buddy has told me AutoShop is the newest bar in Cebu City, i'll confirm that later once i get more info... Till then. Salamat!

    Ahh Yes Yes, I remember now... A nephew of mine (age 19, who I havent seen in years) came and visited at my hotel lounge in Cebu. He showed me a photo on his cell-cam of a Rosso Corsa (RED) 512 Testarossa. Ferrari was parked at a golf club in Lahug or somewhere, forgot the name of the place. This must be the same one I assume. Just to let you know, Cebu will likely have more exotics flowin' in according to my sources, actually its according to me as I hoped and dreamed about hehe ;) While I was in Cebu, my driver took me to what is called SRT? Its that 4 lane highway next to the sea. Looks like a good stretch to take a Ferrari Challenge Stradale for a quick run. I hear there are drag races held there on certain weekends as well.

    I visited BMW of Cebu. Just accidentaly saw the dealership after visitng the Magellan Cross. I was welcome by several staff members, they were cool and friendly, exchange business cards and other info, there were ample of cars, not sure if heavy on the inventory, needs more lighting on the main display lobby area. Naa bay Porsche or Range Rover dealer sa Cebu? I didnt get a chance to ask around what other dealerships Cebu has. Honestly, the whole time during my visit to Cebu, I was busy looking around for fishball vendors and CEBU STYLE LECHON (the best) with Puso :2thumbsup:

    Sige Bai!

    Hello Bai Bhane! I think you're reffering to SRP (South Reclamation Project) not SRT, basin slang ra kaayo ang driver nimo. If you wnat to see some exotic cars, naa sad mag standby sa BTC (Banilad Town Center) sa Formo Bar & resto mga owner og Porche, Iam not very familiar sa mga models sa porche nila pero naa sad mga new & old models, I think they're around mga 6 to 8 porche's mag standby diha, dili sad kayo ko sure sa sched nila.

    esiong, Salamat sa info. Yeah baka slang to pag sulti sa driver nako. One time gusto ko pamasahe, he said "Sir naa nata sa S.P.Eyy." I didnt get it at first, he meant SPA, just the way you say the word out hehe... I was in Banilad at one occation, dito sa Crossroads area. I was over at Vudu Nightclub hanging out too. There I saw several BMWs and 1 Supra, sa ako ok lang, piro expecting usa ka Ferrari or Lambo unta. Thanks again bai!

    Hello everybody!

    I will be visiting Cebu next month for a wedding, can you guys recommend
    a place to stay which will be near Sacred Heart Church and Waterfront Hotel?
    Siempre I dont want the 7 thousand a night rate of waterfront, sobra mahal yon para sa akin, I am hoping to find a hotel with wifi access, nice and safe area, and near good local restaurants. I will be coming with a wife and 2 year old kid. Hope somebody could share directions.

    Thank you.

    Check out Golden Peak Hotel, walking distance from Ayala Center and a ride away from Waterfront Hotel in fact you can even see Waterfront from Golden Peak itself. Rates are around P2,600 for double, just add mga P600 per additional bed. With breakfast buffet na yan

    Contact them here: (032) 233-8111 for reservations.

    Thanks, I got me into Golden Prince hotel and suites right accross metro mall at php 1700 double occupancy with breakfast, malinis, bago and very satisfied as we slept well. I find it better than waterfront dahil amoy lumang building na waterfront.

    Wifi is php 50
