Santa Monica Car Show Recap: Luxury Cars, Community, and Real Estate
Santa Monica Exotic Car Show (October 10th, 2025)
On October 10th, 2025, the heart of Santa Monica roared to life with the sights and sounds of some of the world’s most luxurious and exotic automobiles. From 3:00 PM to 6:00 PM, 3rd Street Promenade was transformed into a celebration of automotive beauty, community connection, and local business vibrancy — all thanks to the Santa Monica Exotic Car Show, hosted by Commercial Brokers International.
A Community-Driven Collaboration
This event wasn’t just about horsepower and polished chrome — it was about bringing Santa Monica back to life. Commercial Brokers International partnered with the City of Santa Monica and Malibu Autobahn to curate a high-energy, visually stunning experience that connected local businesses, residents, and car enthusiasts in a unique and meaningful way.
In addition, we teamed up with local retailers and restaurants along the Promenade, who offered exclusive day-of discounts and special offers for attendees. From restaurants to fitness studios, the entire 3rd Street corridor came alive with activity — a reminder of the area’s potential.

Cars That Stopped Traffic
The show featured an elite collection of exotic, luxury, and vintage vehicles — curated with the help of Malibu Autobahn and passionate collectors from across the region. The event delivered a little something for every gearhead and casual onlooker alike. The atmosphere was electric — a blend of automotive elegance, street culture, and community pride.
Revitalizing 3rd Street, One Event at a Time
The bigger goal behind the show was to revitalize one of Santa Monica’s most iconic retail corridors. As the landscape of commercial real estate in Los Angeles evolves, events like this help reactivate public spaces, drive foot traffic to brick-and-mortar businesses, and remind residents and visitors alike of the magic that exists in their own backyard.
At Commercial Brokers International, we believe that real estate isn’t just about buildings — it’s about building community. That’s why we continue to invest in experiences that bring people together and support the long-term vitality of neighborhoods like Santa Monica.
