Sports Car Drivers Come Out in Droves to Surprise Boy for His Birthday

It might be easy to think that automotive enthusiasm is dying out among the nation's youth, but there are still plenty of kids out there who love then — and Nadja Jovanovic knew that seeing just about any cool car would make her son's birthday day. She put the word out in her local Florida community's Facebook page — but what she didn't realize was that asking for a "cool car" to swing by would turn into a sports car meet on her street.
In response to the Facebook post, one car enthusiast named Mike appears to have jumped at the opportunity to go way over the top: he contacted other owners of sports cars he knew and organized a rally, and even reached out to other influencers in the area, including a group called Dream Cars 4 Kids. The local Winter Springs Police Department even escorted the group to Jovanovic's home. The result — well, it was truly heartwarming.
Jovanovic captured the moment on when her son walked out of the house and realized what was sitting on his street. The group included several Porsche 911 models, a Toyota Supra, an Audi R8, a BMW M4 and a Mercedes-AMG GT Roadster. Before the end of the day, a Lamborghini Aventador rolled by as well.
The drivers didn't just drive by, either; they invited Jovanovic's son and other kids at the party to check out and sit in their vehicles. The owner of the Mercedes-AMG GT even let kids rev the car up while it was parked on the street — the sort of act that seems liable to turn any child into a gearhead for life.
As of this story's publication on Tuesday, Jovanovic's video — posted one day ago —has racked up nearly three million views on TikTok, and racked up thousands of comments, even from the likes of the official Hot Wheels account. Suffice it to say, it seems like it was a birthday neither Jovanovic nor her son will soon forget.
