The South Florida Exotic Car Toy Rally is a one-day charity drive for exotic cars that collects toys and cash for the Marine Corps Toys for Tots program. The 2026 edition is on Saturday 5 December, and the organizer calls it the rally’s 21st anniversary, per the official site.
The field gathers at Seminole Casino Coconut Creek in the morning, drives in a procession to a pit stop at Ferrari / Maserati of Fort Lauderdale, then finishes at the Goodyear Airship facility, where the toys are handed over to the Marines. The organizer says 100% of money and toys go to Toys for Tots.
The schedule
The schedule page lists the day as follows, and notes that it is subject to change. Arrive between 8am and 8:30am to park, check in and sign in. Breakfast runs 8am to 9:30am. The mandatory drivers meeting is at 9:30am, and you must already be parked and signed in to take part. Engines start at 9:45am.
The first leg runs 10am to 11:15am, from the casino to Ferrari / Maserati of Fort Lauderdale. A pit stop at the dealership runs 11:15am to 11:45am. The second leg runs 11:45am to 12:30pm, to the Goodyear Airship facility. The toy donation is 12:30pm to 1pm, followed by lunch, raffles and auction items from 1pm to 3:30pm. The schedule asks every participant to stay until the end.
The organizer asks drivers to arrive on time with a full tank, and says plainly: no early arrivals and no late ones. A United States Marine Corps color guard presents the colors at the finish, and all gates close during that ceremony.
Where it starts
The start is Seminole Casino Coconut Creek, 5550 NW 40th Street, Coconut Creek. The directions page says to enter from State Road 7 (US 441) onto NW 40th Street, and not through the main casino entrance.
How entry works and what it costs
Advance registration is required, and only registered participants are admitted, per the registration page. The entry fee is toys: each participant must bring at least $200 worth of new, unwrapped toys, which are donated to Toys for Tots. The form allows no more than 2 people per car, and every participant must be able to attend the whole event.
The rally is for exotic cars only. The organizer’s exotic car page names makes such as Ferrari, Lamborghini, Aston Martin, Bentley, Lotus, Bugatti, McLaren and Pagani, plus limited versions such as a Carrera GT, a Viper, an Acura NSX or a Corvette ZR1. It lists a Porsche Boxster, a BMW M3, a basic Corvette and a basic Porsche 911 as examples of cars that do not qualify, and invites owners who are unsure to ask.
The cause
Toys for Tots is run by the United States Marine Corps, which collects new, unwrapped toys and gives them to children in need. The organizer says the rally has collected and donated more than 70,000 toys and more than $1 million in cash over its first 20 years, all of it to Toys for Tots.
The driving rules
The terms and conditions are direct. The event is not a race and not a high-speed venue. Speeding, aggressive, reckless or unsafe driving and any moving violation are not tolerated, and neither is driving under the influence. Drivers may not fall behind and then speed to catch up, may not tailgate, must look both ways at intersections, and must keep seatbelts on.
Police, sheriff’s deputies or the Florida Highway Patrol may escort the procession, and participants must follow their instructions and the organizer’s. Each car gets an ID number at check-in and drives in that order. Every driver needs a valid license, insurance and registration, and the car must be roadworthy.
