2Fast 2Furious with Havoline and Xpress Lube

Fast cars, beautiful women and good guys: it’s a tried and tested formula that spells box office success.

Caltex Havoline Motor Oils and Xpress Lube presented the premier night of the fast-car flick — 2Fast 2Furious — last Friday, September 5 at the Cinema 2 of Greenbelt 3. The oil company added excitement to the premier and started the festivities with a motorcade from the Fort grounds to Greenbelt 3. The motorcade was like a live version of the movie with fast, modified and customized cars snaking their way through the weekend Makati traffic.

Havoline and Xpress Lube is likewise giving their customers a chance to see the movie for free during its regular screening which begins today, September 10. For every change-oil at any Metro Manila Xpress Lube branch from September 1 to 23, a customer will get a free coupon for Havoline Energy and two free coupons for Havoline Fully Synthetic. The coupon/s can be exchanged with a movie ticket in Alabang Town Center, Greenbelt 1, Glorietta 1 and Glorietta 4 cinemas.

"It’s a match made in heaven — Havoline, Xpress Lube and 2Fast 2Furious," said Havoline product manager Paul A. Familiara. "Our customers deserve only the best engine oil for their fast cars, just like the cars in the movie, where speed and high performance sets the rule."

2Fast 2Furious is a sequel to the 2001 box office hit The Fast and the Furious. The movie features the story of former cop Brian O’Conner (played by Paul Walker) who teams up with his ex-con buddy Roman Pearce (Tyrese Gibson) to transport a shipment of "dirty" money for shady import-export dealer Carter Verone (Cole Hauser), while working with undercover agent Monica Clemente (Eva Mendez) to bring Verone to justice. Needless to say, a lot of innovative cinematography, special effects and sound engineering were used to give the movie goers a ride of a lifetime.

Caltex Havoline Motor Oils, in Havoline Fully Synthetic, Havoline Energy Synthetic and Havoline Formula variants, are high-performance engine oils that have been used for racing since the 1930s.
