MotorEx Awards: Street Elite, Exhibition, Vans, Muscle & Race Cars

Celebrating, showcasing and rewarding automotive artistic excellence at Meguiar's MotorEx 2026!

Share

Meguiar’s MotorEx has grown exponentially over the last few years to become not only Australia’s biggest indoor car show, but also a full-blown, high-octane automotive festival.

With full-blown concerts, methanol cruising, drifting, a whole field of insane 4×4 builds, Portelli World and much more, it could be easy to forget that the heart of the event is to celebrate, showcase and reward excellence in the fields of automotive artistic excellence.

The headline awards are the Superstars gongs, but the competition in the remaining categories is always red hot. The majority of the awards listed below are judged by Owen Webb’s team of professional judges, while the panel van category is decided on by people’s choice. Check them out!
