The Bureau of Customs (BOC), through the Port of Manila (POM), will be holding a public auction on October 30 for 11 luxury vehicles. The agency announced that the auction will be conducted through sealed bidding and will take place in the second-floor conference room of the Prefab Building on the BOC-POM grounds, starting at 10am.
Among the 11 cars are a 2021 McLaren Senna and a 2022 Ferrari SF90 Stradale. The Senna is a track-focused hypercar with only 500 units made worldwide, while the SF90 features Ferrari’s plug-in hybrid system comprising a twin-turbo V8 with three electric motors. The Senna’s floor price starts at P86,735,913.31, while the SF90’s starts at P33,264,550.94
The other cars on the list include a 2022 Rolls-Royce Phantom, a 2021 Rolls-Royce Cullinan, a 2022 Bentley Continental, a 2019 Lexus ES, a 2021 Land Rover Range Rover, a 2021 Mercedes-Benz AMG GT, a 2023 BMW X6, and a 2019 Toyota Alphard. These vehicles were originally seized by the BOC for illegal importation, misdeclaration, or tax evasion.
