Octoberfast 2025: A Stuttgart Celebration at Haus of Euro
Our first-ever Octoberfast event rolled into Haus of Euro on October 5th, and it was nothing short of epic—a day that truly embodied the spirit of European car culture.
Designed as a tribute to Stuttgart’s finest, the spotlight shined brightly on Mercedes-Benz and Porsche, two icons that have defined precision engineering, motorsport heritage, and timeless design. The parking lot quickly transformed into a stunning display of German craftsmanship, AMGs lined up hood-to-hood with Porsches, each one gleaming under the hotTempe sun. The scene was electric, the sounds of performance exhausts echoing through the air and enthusiasts swapping stories about their builds and track experiences.
Members from the Arizona AMG Club, Mercedes-Benz of Arizona, and AZ Porsche turned out in full force, bringing with them an incredible lineup of show euro cars from modern performance monsters to rare classics that drew a solid size crowd for most of the event until the heat really kicked in. Crazy to think we are still dealing with summer like heat in October. With that said, We appreciate the energy everyone brought to help set the tone for what Octoberfast is all about: community, passion, and the love for European cars.
And it wasn’t just Stuttgart that stole the show. The event also drew an impressive mix of other European legends—from the exotic lines of Lamborghinis and Aston Martins, to the track-bred precision of Audis and BMWs. It was a vibrant blend of car manufacturers which perfectly captured the spirit of Haus of Euro.
But Octoberfast wasn’t your typical Cars & Coffee. This event had its own Haus of Euro twist. Alongside the show-stopping lineup of cars, guests enjoyed a professional cornhole setup that brought out competitive spirits and plenty of laughs for families and friends.
Adding to the excitement, KJ’s Smokehouse brought the flavor—literally. Their special German Brat with a pulled pork twist stole the show and sold out fast (no surprise after the first bite).
And if all that wasn’t enough, attendees got a front-row seat to something truly special: Jeff Sutton (better known online as @its_jaloppy_jeff had his Mercedes-Benz W202 C43 AMG under the knife, getting fitted with a DTM-style widebody kit by Nick Kingsley from our Haus of Euro Motorsports division. Seeing the craftsmanship and precision behind a true widebody build live in action drew a constant crowd.
From roaring V8s to precision-engineered flat-sixes, from bratwursts to bags, Octoberfast 2025 was a full-throttle success. Huge thanks to everyone who came out, showed love, and made this debut event one to remember.
We can confidently say — Octoberfast is here to stay. See you all next year at the Haus!
