Fun. For the price ($8 a ticket) you get what you pay for. Cars with descriptions. It’s a one way museum with some cool gags, like a delorean and a racing simulator (not operational while we visited). Spent around 45 minutes there, but you could spend more time. Wouldn’t go back unless they updated things, but for what it is, it’s fun! More

Small museum with a wide assortment of cars. Could be more interesting if you like motorcycles, I feel they have an even broader assortment of bikes. The museum is of high quality and there was a lot of thought put into each display. You can even get a photo op in a couple of the vehicles. More
