Bikini Car Wash for  Auto Extreme Fans

What started out as a tame evening of music and show cars in an open field turned into a wild crowd converging around a cluster of ladies in their bikinis in the middle of the road.  Peculiar as it was that the ladies were nowhere near a beach and that it was late in the night, what made the occasion even more remarkable was that the ladies were all set to wash a long line of cars for the duration of the night!

The event was Auto Extreme’s Bikini Car Wash held at Fort Bonifacio Global City.  Auto Extreme is a multi-faceted and fast-paced TV-magazine that covers more than just motor sports and information for die-hard motoring aficionados.  Showing every Saturday at 4 p.m. on RPN 9, it aims to reach out to the young crowd out there that’s still on the prowl for new ideas, gadgets, car specialty shops and trivia that could further fuel their passion for cars.

And fuel their passion it did – last June 7th at Hot Rod Bar and Café at The Fort.  Seven young ladies, in colorful bikinis provided by Sari-sari, gamely took power hose and foaming machine in hand to soap, rinse and shine a line of cars that slowly grew as the night wore on.  Rather than dampening the crowd’s spirit, brief spells of rain only sent the male-dominated audience momentarily scurrying for shelter under nearby tents, to reemerge as soon as the drizzle abated.

Gentlemen who participated in the bikini car wash received snapshots of themselves next to their freshly-washed cars, and of course, flanked by Auto Extreme’s car wash ladies.  The credit-card sized photos – convenient enough to flash around – were compliments of Marco Abesamis Photography.

Although it was highly unlikely for the crowd to get bored while watching the girls working with the long hoses in hand and posing for the cameras in between, Auto Extreme continued to rev up the audience with live band music, games and prizes for everyone present.  And to make sure that the evening’s customers went home completely satisfied, Auto Extreme got its sponsors Turtle Wax, First Station, Downpour and Wet Worx to help ensure the professional quality of the car wash jobs.  It seems the clients indeed found the slightly pricey car wash worthwhile, because when the skies finally let loose a long and major downpour, there was still a long queue of cars waiting for their turn.  Unfortunately, Auto Extreme had to call it a night – but with a promise that their audience can expect more exciting and extreme events to come.
