It is located on the north side of Brisbane, not far from the airport, and is quite a good setup. There is plenty of under cover parking on the site, plus a restaurant and then the actual museum which has room for about 40 cars. The collection changes every few months. This month (January 2025) the theme seemed to be 70s and 80s performance cars.

Probably the biggest part of the collection was American Muscle, with cars like the Plymouth Super Bird, Dodge Charger, a couple of Mustangs and similar. They had three Pontiac Trans Am’s lined up, each with the iconic Screaming Chicken decal.

As well as the American Muscle, there were also some other performance cars like the Ferrari Testarossa, Porsche 930, De Tomaso Pantera, Jensen Interceptor and so on. Possibly the odd man out was the Mercedes 190SL, which isn’t doesn’t have the performance of its big brother the 300SL, but looks the part.

As well the friends I was meeting there, we ran into another MBCQ member in his W123 230E, plus a W124 owned by a staff member, so the parking garage was like an impromptu Mercedes-Benz show.

The museum is not big, but since the collection turns over regularly, it is well worth a visit.
