Super Import Nights – Worth The S$10 For The Cars And Babes? You Decide!

Super Import Nights at the Singapore Expo is nowhere near to the quality – both in terms of cars and babes – of the Singapore Motor Show. And I realized that the highlights of the events to me are actually free, right outside Hall 5. However, if you are interested in ways to modify and personalize your cars (which I thought the hardcore ones would have known anyway) Super Import Nights may be for you.

As you can see in the pictures above, there is no concept car or unique super car, just cars that you normally see on the street of Singapore. Some modifications are quite funky though, including a paint job on the car that you can display the image of your current lover, your ex-lover, or your favorite celebrity on the bonnet and the sides of the car. I bet you can paint something on top of your car so that people on the bus can see it or it may thrill you in some weird ways when you wash your car.

How about the babes? Men visit a motor show for the cars of course, the same way as we visit an IT show for the cool gadgets. But having beautiful girls to present those jaw dropping cars is like pouring XO onto your fish head noodle – the beauty within is somewhat enhanced. In Super Import Nights, there are three types of babes: the imported babes that cost the event organizer USD 1,500 per model per day whom you hardly get to see at all, the local babes that hang around the premise that you need to pay S$10 to get in, and the FHM babes outside Hall 5. The pictures above are the local babes inside the hall. Skimpily dressed they certainly are. But I thought some of the girls in the crowd who have dressed up for the occasion may look better.

Now, what was it that so excited me outside Hall 5? Not the FHM girls of course *cough* Cynthia was with me (and my buddy ditched me because of work on a public holiday). The parking area outside Hall 5 is cleared and has turned into a “drift racing area”. For those of you who have watched the latest installment of “The Fast And The Furious” will know what drift racing is. Basically, it is a technique whereby a car is maneuvered round the corners with the front wheels pointing in the opposite direction of the motion. It is pretty cool to look at in the movie and basically, you see cars “sliding” round the bends in the most surreal manner. And that was exactly what I saw outside Hall 5. The car used was Evolution 9 (I think). The sound of the engine was so loud and I swear I could smell the rubber. The first picture above was taken in front of the area.

And near to the drift racing area is the display of the brand new Evolution 10 selling at S$128,000 (second picture above). It looks too much like EX and that is a major disappointment to me. Evolution is meant to be exclusive. Right in front of the Evolution 10 was a bunch of FHM girls (pictures above). Hooray?

So, how about the “other” main attraction of the event (see promotional pictures above)? There were people standing in front of the stage area for more than half an hour waiting for the appearance of the imported babes. We stood there for a while and then we gave up waiting. When they actually came out into the stage, it was hardly a 5 minutes job and then they once again disappeared into the backstage. So, be informed.

Super Import Nights is opened till Sunday.
