The Honda Club of the Philippines (HCP) celebrated a milestone anniversary last month, marking 24 years with a reunion of its members at the Honda Cars Fairview dealership. The club also held its annual “graduation” ceremony, where aspiring HCP members became bona fide members of HCP.
While previous HCP graduations consisted of a group and solo dance number in front of an audience of HCP members, a new element was added for this year’s graduation: a theme. For 2025, the theme was “June Bride,” where applicants were required to model their gowns on stage, to the delight of over a hundred HCP members and their families. In all, 31 new graduates became bona fide HCP members that day — 11 from the EK Elites subgroup.
Honda Club Philippines is among a handful of Philippine car clubs supported by the brand. Apart from providing a venue for the graduation, key officers from Honda Cars Philippines, Inc. (HCPI) were on hand to congratulate the graduates and connect with Honda owners in attendance, including HCPI President Rie Miyake, HCPI SVP Atty. Louie Soriano, HCPI General Manager for Sales Division Aizza Flores, and HCPI Department Manager for Communications Rex Decena. Also present was Honda Cars Fairview GM Rachelle Marie Diyco.
“This isn’t just an event; it’s a meaningful gathering of kindred spirits who share a deep appreciation for the Honda brand. We’re truly excited to open our doors to the HCP community, welcome you into our home, and celebrate this remarkable milestone together,” said Ms. Diyco.
Added HCP President Charles Dy Cabrera: “Aside from becoming a part of one of the OG car club in the country, a bona member is qualified to join exclusive events and activities of the club, receive discounts and benefits from Honda dealerships and partner shops, and of course interact with different Honda groups within HCP. After all, HCP is not just a car club that focuses on cars, it fosters well-being development and family bonding.”
With a showroom big enough for eight vehicles, and a service area with 30 work bays, Honda Cars Fairview is among the largest Honda dealerships in the country. “More than our size, it’s the experience that sets us apart,” Ms. Diyco shared. “We’ve thoughtfully created spaces to make every visit enjoyable and worthwhile — whether you’re relaxing at the coffee bar, watching your kids play in the kiddie corner, enjoying our gaming lounge, taking photos by our mural wall, or exploring our Honda history wall and Tomica model car collection.”
Under Gateway Group management, Honda Fairview was awarded Dealer of the Year in 2021, and continued its streak as second runner-up in 2022, and first runner-up in 2023.
