For those who treat cars not just as machines but as investments, art pieces, and symbols of identity, the garage has evolved into something far more prestigious. In the modern collector landscape, cars aren't merely owned—they're curated, shared, and celebrated among elite networks of individuals who value rarity, performance, and heritage. This global ecosystem of ultra-exclusive car collector clubs brings together billionaires, royalty, celebrities, and lifelong enthusiasts through shared access, private rallies, and once-in-a-lifetime experiences.
Whether it’s a hypercar rally through the Alps or a candlelit dinner in a castle courtyard with your LaFerrari parked nearby, the world’s top car clubs offer something money alone can’t buy: insider access and meaningful community. Here are the most exclusive collector car clubs and private automotive networks operating today.
SOC is the gold standard of exclusivity in the collector car world. Founded in Switzerland and operating internationally, Supercar Owners Circle is more than just a club—it’s a discreet, highly selective society of collectors who own some of the rarest vehicles on the planet. SOC’s membership list is not public, but it’s known to include royalty, CEOs, and legacy collectors from Monaco to Dubai.
Members enjoy access to some of the most extravagant events in the automotive world. Think closed-road driving tours through the Swiss Alps, weekend takeovers of palaces and luxury hotels, and private use of legendary racetracks like Spa-Francorchamps. Participants frequently bring hypercars like the Bugatti Divo, Koenigsegg Jesko Absolut, Pagani Zonda R, and bespoke one-off builds that are never seen in public.
Why it matters: SOC isn’t just exclusive—it’s aspirational. Being invited signals that you’ve entered the inner circle of global car collecting, where the value of your garage is matched only by the discretion of the company you keep.
Ferrari’s Cavalcade is one of the most prestigious factory-backed collector events in the world. It’s not a club in the traditional sense, but participation is by invitation only and reserved for Ferrari’s most elite customers—typically those with multiple special-edition or tailor-made models in their collection. The Cavalcade happens in a new location each year, often incorporating scenic routes through Italy, the U.S., or Asia.
Each multi-day event combines spirited drives, Michelin-starred dining, cultural excursions, and luxury hospitality—all coordinated by Ferrari. Participants are given rare access to behind-the-scenes experiences, such as track laps in limited-edition cars, access to the Ferrari Classiche department, and early looks at future product reveals.
Perks: The real benefit of attending Cavalcade isn’t just the roads or the camaraderie—it’s positioning yourself as a preferred Ferrari client. Past Cavalcade participants are often first in line for allocation of hyper-limited models like the Monza SP2 or Daytona SP3.
Located near Palm Springs, The Thermal Club is one of the most luxurious private racetrack communities in the United States. This isn’t just a place to drive—it’s a place to live. Members are required to purchase real estate on-site, which includes custom homes and garages that surround the club’s multiple professional-grade circuits.
The club features three racetracks, a karting course, tuning garages, and a motorsports village with full hospitality amenities. Members include professional athletes, tech entrepreneurs, and established car collectors who use Thermal not just for play—but for serious driving. The club also hosts events with manufacturers like Porsche, Ferrari, and McLaren, giving members first-hand access to product launches, track testing, and private coaching.
Ideal for: Serious drivers who want to mix luxury living with professional-grade racing access.
Based in the heart of London, Auto Vivendi is a supercar club with a twist. Instead of owning one or two exotic vehicles, members gain access to a rotating garage of some of the world’s most desirable performance cars. This model appeals to collectors who value variety, flexibility, and social engagement over traditional garage builds.
The membership tiers include access to cars like the Ferrari 488 Pista, Lamborghini Aventador SVJ, McLaren 720S, Rolls-Royce Wraith, and more. But what makes Auto Vivendi stand out is its lifestyle programming. The club organizes events such as ski trips, Formula 1 paddock experiences, and luxury road rallies across Europe. Their famed “Night Drives” through London combine photography, camaraderie, and late-night automotive culture in a way that feels both raw and refined.
Standout: The club’s concierge team handles every detail—from insurance to delivery—making it a favorite among busy executives and HNWIs who want the thrill without the hassle.
This private automotive group is less of a “club” and more of a curated community. Based in South Florida, Scuderia South Florida connects exotic car owners through invite-only drives, curated meetups, and access to limited inventory via preferred dealer partnerships. The group regularly organizes charity drives, track experiences, and yacht-side vehicle showcases during Art Basel or the Miami F1 Grand Prix.
What sets SSF apart is its focus on discretion and trust. Many of its members are collectors, investors, and entrepreneurs who prefer low-profile luxury and relationship-based car sourcing. Events are often unlisted and shared only through private networks, giving it a VIP lounge-like vibe even outside of a formal clubhouse.
Notable: Scuderia South Florida is often first to offer pre-allocation previews of limited-production models through connections with local and international dealerships.
Created by famed YouTuber and automotive influencer Shmee150 (Tim Burton), The Shmuseum Circle is a new-age take on car collecting culture. Tim’s personal garage, dubbed “The Shmuseum,” is filled with icons like the Ford GT, Mercedes AMG GT Black Series, McLaren Senna, and Zenvo TSR-S—each with its own story and build spec.
The Shmuseum Circle offers members early access to content, behind-the-scenes updates, exclusive event invites, and occasional VIP meetups at car launches or motorsport events. This isn't a traditional club with walls and dues—it's a digital-first network of collectors and enthusiasts connected by a shared passion for automotive storytelling.
Perfect for: Younger collectors, digital creators, or enthusiasts who want access, connection, and inspiration without the gatekeeping.
Dubai is the playground of the automotive elite, and Carcierge Club is its concierge-style nerve center. Equal parts showroom, service center, and networking hub, Carcierge blends luxury vehicle management with white-glove hospitality. Members benefit from armored transport services, vehicle sourcing across continents, and private access to investment-grade cars—often before they hit public auction.
The facility offers hyper-secure vehicle storage, a private lounge, and concierge detailing and modification services. They also provide vehicle exhibition coordination, so members can safely display cars at events like Abu Dhabi F1, Pebble Beach, or Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este.
Added Value: In a region known for collecting extremes, Carcierge offers curation, credibility, and calm in a high-octane environment.
Sitting along the Hudson River with stunning views of lower Manhattan, the Classic Car Club offers a social and automotive sanctuary for the city’s collectors and enthusiasts. Inside, you’ll find a rotating fleet that spans vintage icons to modern beasts—E-type Jaguars, 1960s Porsches, McLaren Arturas, and more.
Beyond the garage, the space includes a private restaurant and bar, member lounges, and a rooftop event space for launches, races, or sunset cocktails. The club's events range from city rallies to art gallery collaborations, often weaving New York’s cultural fabric with its automotive DNA.
Vibe: Where fine art, finance, and Ferraris coexist. Think GQ-meets-Top Gear with a cocktail in hand.

The world’s most exclusive car collector clubs—and the individuals behind them—represent far more than status. They represent access. Membership in these circles doesn’t just open doors to rare cars, but to private roads, world-class events, early allocations, and an inner circle of visionaries who see the automobile as both an asset and art form.
For high-net-worth individuals who’ve already acquired watches, wine, and real estate, joining the right car collector club is the next frontier in lifestyle curation. It’s where legacy is built not just in garages, but through connections that span continents, generations, and the history of automotive excellence.
In this world, the engine is just the beginning. The real power is in the keys you carry—and who’s waiting at the next rally.
