The car show that spans generations of car enthusiasts is back on May 23-26 at the SMX Convention Center by Mall of Asia. The annual TransSportShow is presented this year by Phoenix Pulse Technology for Enhanced Power and Acceleration and is anticipated to be another grand exhibition of restored and customized show cars by the leading automotive shops in the country.
TransSportShow is now on its 28th year and remains to be the longest running car show in the country today making it an iconic brand in the Philippine automotive industry. The show is organized by Tradeshow International, Inc. (TSI), one of the oldest exhibition management and events companies in the country. TSI also organizes the Manila Auto Salon and the Sport Truck Show.
“TransSportShow has lasted this long mainly because we value the goals and objectives of the key players in the project,” said Sophie delos Santos, organizer of the TransSportShow. She stresses the importance of ensuring that exhibitors and sponsors meet their objectives in joining the show, providing them with the target market – quality against quantity. Equally important is to ensure that the show is worth the visitors’ time and money and that the suppliers provide the professional service needed to run the show. Last but not least, Tradeshow International, Inc. as the organizer must strike a balance between the event’s continued financial viability and its passion to stage a real car enthusiasts’ show every year. “We have not missed a year despite the several economic crises that the country has suffered. TransSportShow has endured,” she added.
The 29 TransSportShow promises a line up of over 100 project vehicles competing for the much coveted TransSportShow Cup Best of Show Award. Every year, the show floor literally turns into a beauty pageant for vehicles, 95% of which will be displayed for the first time. Last year’s Best of Show winner for the Contemporary class was Import Hook-Up’s 2017 Mclaren 570S (featured in the poster). The Best of Show winner for the Nostalgic class was a 1998 Toyota Corolla by Vonetix Radical Creations. Alex Car Restoration bagged the Reserve Best of Show Nostalgic award for its Shelby Cobra. 2.
