Nadja Jovanovic’s youngest son, Kosta, turned 4 on March 24, and she wanted to make his birthday special. Kosta loves transportation vehicles, a passion shared by his two older brothers and father, who enjoys luxury and vintage cars. As his birthday approached, Nadja got the idea to post on her city’s private Facebook group, which has 15,000 active members, asking if anyone with a cool car would be willing to visit them.
The Unexpected Response
Nadja was taken aback by the response to her post. Instead of the one or two cars she expected, almost 100 people replied, and local car enthusiast Mike Mallozzi organized a police-escorted luxury car parade. On March 23, the day before Kosta’s birthday, about 10 cars showed up, including Porsches, an Audi R8, Mercedes GTs, and BMW M4s. The event was made even more special by Mallozzi’s connection to a non-profit organization called Dream Cars 4 Kids, which brought additional drivers to join the parade.
A Community Comes Together

The Jovanovic family was overwhelmed by the kindness of the community. Kosta and his brothers were thrilled to see the cars up close, touch them, sit inside, and even rev the engines. The event was captured in a video that Nadja later uploaded to TikTok, which quickly went viral, garnering almost 22 million views and over 40,000 comments.
A Viral Moment of Kindness
The video showed the family’s genuine reactions to the surprise, with Nadja describing the scene as “insane” and “incredibly heartwarming.” The comments on the video were overwhelmingly positive, with many viewers praising the community’s kindness and generosity. Nadja was moved to tears by comments like “This has restored my faith in humanity” and “This is the best thing I’ve ever seen on the Internet.”
A Birthday to Remember
For Nadja, the experience was more than just a birthday surprise; it was a reminder of the goodness in the world. She expressed her gratitude to the drivers who participated and handed out cupcakes she had made for Kosta’s birthday. The event turned into something much bigger than just a birthday celebration, showcasing the power of community and kindness.
