“Kustom Ada Gaya” AOS 2025 roared with style and charisma,
standing tall as Malaysia’s biggest Kustom Kulture event
SELANGOR, 28 July 2025 – The Malaysia Agro Exposition Park Serdang (MAEPS) came alive last weekend as Art of Speed 2025 (AOS2025) delivered a jaw-dropping celebration of creativity, horsepower, and lifestyle. Now in its 14th year, AOS2025 shattered expectations with a packed lineup of custom cars and motorcycles, lifestyle showcases, music, food, and an unmatched international guest list.
With the theme “Kustom Ada Gaya,” AOS2025 wasn’t just an event — it was a movement. From the fully animated LED gateway welcoming fans into a world of style and expression, to the roars of classic engines and thumping basslines, the two-day festival proved once again why it’s the heart of Malaysia’s Kustom Kulture scene.
A Global Showcase of Legends and Machines
International luminaries like MOONEYES Japan, Brendon Vetuskey (Hot Wheels USA), and Mark Hawwa (The Distinguished Gentleman’s Ride) joined forces with Southeast Asia’s best builders, artists, and collectors. The result: a creative collision of cultures that brought fans face-to-face with rare builds, legendary guests, and unforgettable experiences.
Standout segments like “Beetle Battle” (led by Volkswagen Beetle Club Indonesia) and the Hot Wheels Collectors Convention Malaysia added depth, nostalgia, and serious collector appeal — drawing in thousands of visitors and young families.
SoundCircus Takeover: Where Machines Meet Music
For music lovers, the SoundCircus Takeover was a feast for the senses. Local and regional talents including Ruffedge, Romantic Echoes, Luqman Podolski, and Noh Salleh lit up Hall A, transforming it into a non-stop sonic playground that pulsed with energy.
Champions Crowned, Cultures Celebrated
Custom builders took center stage with jaw-dropping entries that wowed both judges and audiences.
Best of Show Automobile went to Shaun Pinto for his iconic 1965 VW Beetle, while Omar Jumiran of Eastern Bobber stole the motorcycle spotlight with his custom Honda CB 175cc (1983).
Both winners will proudly represent Malaysia at the 33rd Annual MOONEYES Yokohama Hot Rod Custom Show 2025 in Japan — a true international nod to Malaysia’s thriving builder community.

Enthusiasts also had a chance to test ride iconic bikes from Royal Enfield, Vespa, Triumph, Harley-Davidson, and more.
Community spirit ran deep as clubs like AROCM, K-Car, and Scooterists filled the grounds with pride and passion.
