What We Are Looking For

Authenticity

Ever seen a car and said, “Wow, that looks like a Hot Wheels”? We want vehicles that embody that sentiment.

Creativity

We’ve made tens of thousands of unique vehicle models over the past 55 years, so we’re looking for never-before-seen designs that stand out from the crowd.

Garage Spirit

Built, not bought. We’re looking to see some builds that exemplify our challenger spirit.
