Cars 20th-Anniversary Gear: Where to Find It and How to Snag It

Published June 13, 2026 · Updated September 9, 2026

Quick Take

If you’re heading to Walt Disney World, the Cars 20th-anniversary collection is already on the shelves. The centerpiece is the cherry-red Racing Jacket ($84.99) and a handful of coordinated tees, hats, and accessories. Grab it before you leave the resort – either in-park at the dedicated Cars shops or online with a 23 % D23Shop discount (expires March 30 2025). Act fast; the jacket sells out in hours.

Where to Score It

In-Park Locations

Cars Land – Luigi’s Rollickin’ Roadsters: The main retail window for Cars gear. The jacket is displayed front-and-center, and staff can check inventory on the spot.
World of Disney (Disney Springs): Still open despite the 2018 remodel. The Cars-themed rack is stocked with the jacket, tees, and a limited-edition pin set.
The Disney Corner (Disney Springs) and Ever After Jewelry Co.: Smaller boutiques that have been known to receive overflow stock when World of Disney runs low.

Online Options

Disney Store website (shop.disney.com) and the Disney Shopping app. Use the D23Shop promo code for 23 % off the entire Cars anniversary line, but only until March 30 2025.
Pickup at select locations: When you order online, you can select “Park Pickup” at World of Disney or the Cars-themed kiosk in Cars Land. The item is held for 24 hours.

What’s New

Racing Jacket – $84.99 – Cherry-red shell, black-and-white checkered trim on torso and sleeves, lightning-bolt zipper pull. The cut is slimmer than the 2011 version, so check the size chart (see note below).
Coordinated tees (light-blue and charcoal) with the iconic “Speed. Power. Glory.” script.
Limited-edition enamel pin set – Two mystery pins per bundle; a quicker route to completing a Cars pin collection than buying singles.
Kids’ caps with the classic Lightning McQueen silhouette, sized for ages 4-8.

Who Should Grab It

Families with a young fan who want a wearable reminder of the film. The jacket’s bright color makes it a standout photo-prop.
Collectors tracking Disney anniversary drops. The jacket’s design is exclusive to the 20-year celebration and will not be re-released.
Adults who like subtle Disney: The jacket’s design is bold; if you prefer low-key gear, consider the tees or pins instead.
Budget-conscious guests: The jacket sits at mid-range Disney apparel pricing. If the 23 % off code brings it under $65, it’s a solid value; otherwise, the tees at $34.99 may be a smarter spend.

Insider Buying Hacks

Hit the app the night before. Inventory updates at 6 a.m. PST; the app will show “In Stock” before the shelves are restocked.
Reserve with the Disney Shopping app. You can lock a size for the jacket and pick it up the same day, avoiding the “sold out” scramble.
Use the D23Shop promo code before March 30 2025. The 23 % discount applies to the jacket and all accessories, turning an $84.99 purchase into a $66.00 deal.
Size-chart caution: Disney-adidas collaborations list adult sizes under the children’s chart. The Racing Jacket follows the same pattern – a “Medium” on the tag actually fits a women’s Small. Double-check the measurements (Chest 36-38 in) before you buy.
Online flash-sale reflex: When the item appears on the site, add it to your cart immediately and checkout within minutes. Inventory disappears in seconds.
Amazon price-drop tip – After Disney announces a merch drop, a quick search on Amazon can surface the same items at a 10-15 % discount within 24 hours. Not a guarantee, but worth a glance if you’re price-sensitive.

The shortcut path between Cars Land and Avengers Campus is closed for construction. Walk the main park promenade past the Pixar Place entrance; you’ll hit the Cars retail window in under five minutes.
If World of Disney is crowded (typical lunch rush), swing by The Disney Corner or Ever After Jewelry Co. – both carry a limited selection of the anniversary line and have shorter lines.
Park-hours matter: The Cars shop opens at park opening and closes at 9 p.m. The World of Disney location stays open later (10 p.m.), giving you a post-fireworks window to pick up online orders.

Takeaway

The Cars 20th-anniversary jacket is a limited-time, high-visibility piece that sells out fast. Use the D23Shop 23 % off code, reserve the size on the Disney Shopping app, and plan a quick walk through the main promenade (skip the closed shortcut). If the jacket stretches your budget, the coordinated tees or mystery-pin bundle give you the same anniversary vibe for less. Secure your gear early and you’ll leave Disney World with a souvenir that actually tells a story, not just a generic logo.
