Three luxury vehicles linked to contractor couple Pacifico “Curlee” Discaya and Cezarah Rowena “Sarah” Discaya were sold in a public auction conducted by the Bureau of Customs (BOC) on Wednesday, generating P25.7 million in revenue for the government.
The sold units included a 2024 Lincoln Navigator, a 2022 Cadillac Escalade ESV, and a 2022 Bentley Bentayga.
According to the BOC, proceeds from the auction will be remitted to the Bureau of the Treasury to help finance public programs and infrastructure projects.
Among the winning bidders, Igorot Stone Kingdom—represented by founder Pio Velasco—secured the Cadillac Escalade ESV for P6.6 million.
The same group previously acquired a Rolls-Royce Cullinan in an earlier BOC auction.
Meanwhile, Cantinetta Espresso Concepts won the bid for the Lincoln Navigator at P6.9 million, while TDY Consumer Goods Trading purchased the Bentley Bentayga for P12.1 million.
A total of 12 high-end vehicles were offered during the auction. However, nine units failed to attract bidders, including a Ferrari SF90 Stradale (Mansory) 2024, Rolls-Royce Phantom 2023, Mercedes-Benz G650 V12 Biturbo 2022, BMW XM 2024, Lexus LX570 2018, GMC Yukon Denali 2022, Cadillac Escalade 2021, Maserati Levante Modena 2022, and GMC Yukon XL Denali 2022.
