Make sure you wear comfortable shoes when you visit the 5th Philippine International Motor Show, which is open until this Sunday (September 21). Each booth has something interesting on display--and that excludes the after-sales and technology pavilion.
So, we round up some of the cars that you should see up close and personal.
Volkswagen Golf GTI
Simon Loasby, VW China's design director, sketched the Golf during the German carmaker's presentation. Then the carmaker unveiled the hatchback on the motor show's second day. Check it out.
