This year, the Award-winning vehicles were showcased in a dedicated display area. Because the award winners were easy to identify at a glance, many visitors headed straight to the display area as soon as the results were announced to see the vehicles up close. It was a valuable opportunity to take in the meticulous craftsmanship and unique ideas poured into each build, and many guests were seen carefully examining every detail. It truly became a special moment where everyone could feel the appeal of custom culture up close.

This year, for the first time in two years, a Best of Show Automobile was selected. Among the many outstanding Custom Cars on display, the 1940 Mercury Eight by El-Classico Vintage and Antiques stood out with overwhelming presence and claimed the top honor.

The Motorcycle Show also featured an exceptionally high level of entries, making the judges’ decision more difficult than ever. Following a fair and rigorous evaluation based on the judged score sheets and the panel’s review, Bike Garage Kokoro’s 1961 Harley-Davidson FL Panhead earned the title of Best of Show Motorcycle, becoming the champion of the HCS2025 Motorcycle Show.

In addition, we welcomed many overseas guests this year, and magazine awards from Japan and abroad were announced one after another, resulting in numerous awards across all categories. Congratulations to all of the winners!
