Entrant FAQ

Early bird entries for Meguiar’s MotorEx are now open.

When do entries open?

General entries for the 25th Meguiar’s MotorEx open on Wednesday 29 July 2026 (6pm AEST).

If you register for entrant early access, you will receive access before entries open to everyone.

Where do I enter my vehicle?

You’ll enter through the Street Machine Shed.

The Shed is your online garage for managing your profile, vehicles, photographs, event applications, tickets and purchases.

How do I enter?

Create or activate your Street Machine Shed profile, add your personal details and build your vehicle profile with clear photographs and information.

When entries open, select Meguiar’s MotorEx, choose your vehicle and entry category, complete the application and submit payment.

How much does it cost to enter MotorEx?

Entry prices vary between categories.

We’ll show you the price, entrant inclusions and available extras in the Street Machine Shed before you complete your application.

What vehicles can enter MotorEx?

We accept applications from a wide range of vehicles, including elite show cars, street machines, custom classics, muscle cars, JDM and European builds, race cars, 4x4s, exotics and club vehicles.

Each MotorEx world has its own entry criteria and presentation requirements.

What is the difference between indoor and outdoor entry?

Our indoor entries form part of the curated pavilion displays and generally have stricter presentation, bump-in and display requirements.

Our outdoor categories are designed for selected street-driven, club, performance and community vehicles, with requirements varying between worlds.

Does submitting an application guarantee my indoor entry?

No. MotorEx is a curated event, so submitting an application or paying an entry fee does not guarantee acceptance.

We may assess your application on vehicle quality, presentation, suitability, available space and the overall balance of vehicles within each world.

Our team will review your application before confirming your place.

Does my vehicle need to be registered?

Registration requirements vary between entry categories.

Every vehicle entered in BLAHST Real Street must be driven to MotorEx rather than transported into the display.

Can I enter more than one vehicle?

Yes. You can add multiple vehicles to your Street Machine Shed garage and submit a separate application for each one.

We’ll assess every vehicle individually.

Will entries sell out?

Yes. Indoor space and places within each MotorEx world are limited.

We may close categories once their available allocations have been filled.

When do entries close?

Entries will close on the advertised closing date or when the relevant category sells out, whichever happens first.

Don’t assume places will remain available closer to the event.
