This year’s Motorlux highlights include several themed exhibits. "From Stuttgart with Love" pays tribute to Porsche with various models on display. "America’s Wild Horse - 60 Years of Ford Mustang" celebrates the iconic car's anniversary by showcasing top examples from each generation. The "200 MPH Club" exhibit features cars capable of reaching speeds of 200 mph or more, ranging from 1980s designs to modern hypercars.
