News Flash, Hot Wheels is going on a 50th Anniversary search for your custom car, and you can enter your custom car into the competition or come witness the epic event!

Yesterday was the 1st event, at the Hot Wheels HQ and manufacturing facility, and it will end at SEMA 2018

Have you ever seen a car and said, “That looks like a Hot Wheels?” They are looking for that “Hot Wheels-ness” that nails the amazing performance and outrageous design they’re known for.

ORIGINALITY They’ve made over 25,000 unique vehicle models in the past 50 years, so are looking for something with unique details that stands out from the rest.


GARAGE SPIRIT It’s built, not bought, just like Hot Wheels. They’re looking to see some elbow grease that exemplifies the challenger spirit it took to build. Entries will be judged by five criteria (20 points per criteria = 100 points total).

The points will be judged in 5 catagories:
a. The Hot Wheels® Story Behind Your Build: 20%
b. Design: 20%
b. Authenticity: 20%
c. Garage Spirit: 20%; and
d. Performance and Fun: 20%.

The top car from each city will join Hot Wheels at the 2018 SEMA in Las Vegas for the final round and a VIP experience. The Grand Prize Winner will then have his or her custom car immortalized as a Hot Wheels® die-cast car to be sold around the world.



There is no fee to enter or participate in the Event but in order to participate, you must be one of the first two hundred (200) individuals to register online in order to enter the competition being held at each location Event, personally own a customized road vehicle and be selected by Hot Wheels to participate in the Event.
