BRABUS X TOP MARQUES MONACO

Top Marques Monaco is a unique celebration of innovation, exclusivity, and craftsmanship, where the world’s most prestigious brands – like BRABUS – gather to showcase their latest products. BRABUS has been part of this iconic event since its inaugural edition in 2004. Here, Tom Schneider reflects on some of the key milestones from BRABUS’ remarkable journey with Top Marques.

For nearly two decades, BRABUS has been proud to be a part of Top Marques Monaco. From the early years of the event to the present day, our brand has used this prestigious platform to present the latest luxury products from all facets of the world of BRABUS. Bespoke high-performance supercars, luxury dayboats, motorcycles with an instant 1-Second-Wow effect and expertly restored Mercedes-Benz classics. Together with Top Marques, we have been able to connect the industry’s most passionate and influential clients with the BRABUS DNA and introduce them to our vision of tailor-made automotive individualization.

Not just supercars but superboats

A significant milestone in our journey with Top Marques came in 2019 when BRABUS Marine made its official debut at the show in Monaco with a display of the BRABUS Shadow 500 BLACK OPS superboat. Boasting a limited edition “Black and Bold” design concept as well as a combined power output of 500 horsepower produced courtesy of twin 4.6-liter Mercury Marine V8 ProXS lightweight FourStroke engines, this unmistakable marine Masterpiece captivated audiences and took our product showcase at Grimaldi Forum to an entirely new level.

Another landmark moment arrived in 2022. Among a fresh lineup of exclusive luxury products, two highlight supercars took center stage at the BRABUS booth: the BRABUS 820, based on the Porsche 911 Turbo S Cabriolet, and the BRABUS 700, based on the Rolls-Royce Ghost II. For the first time in history, visitors to our showcase were brought face to face with new horizons of tailor-made Masterpiece design by BRABUS, beyond the technological platforms provided by Mercedes-Benz, AMG and Maybach, which fans of the brand were already very familiar with. For the first time since our earliest appearance at the show in the mid-2000s, we introduced an all-new benchmark. One that would set the tone of our presence in Monaco for several years to come.

A relationship built on shared values: exclusivity, excellence and commitment to deliver

Our longstanding relationship with Top Marques is built on shared values: exclusivity, excellence and a commitment to deliver unforgettable luxury experiences spanning several market segments. But what truly makes the show such an effective asset for us is the perfect synergy between our brand and the event’s audience. Year after year, Top Marques attracts discerning collectors, automotive enthusiasts and industry professionals—a global, elite clientele in search of the performance and detail-driven craftsmanship that define BRABUS.

“Top Marques Monaco is the perfect stage for us as a diversified luxury mobility brand to showcase our latest products.” Explains BRABUS CEO and owner Constantin Buschmann. “There really isn’t any other show in Europe like it that brings together such an exclusive audience of enthusiasts who appreciate high-performance luxury and engineering at the highest level.” Buschmann continues, “You can see the entire city jump to life. Car spotters, supercars, bikes, boats, fashion—for almost 20 years, it’s all come together at Grimaldi Forum.”

Top Marques is an invaluable medium for BRABUS

As we celebrate the 20th anniversary of Top Marques Monaco, we look forward to the future with excitement. The event continues to be an invaluable medium for BRABUS to unveil new innovations, push the limits of automotive and marine luxury and connect with high-performance enthusiasts who share our passion for the extraordinary. Our journey with Top Marques is far from over, and we are more committed than ever to creating exceptional shows in Monaco—both on the road and beyond.
