Revs Institute
Revs Institute in Naples, Florida is one of the world’s foremost centers for the study, preservation, and celebration of automotive history. Home to the renowned Miles Collier Collections – more than 100 significant automobiles built between 1896 and 1995 – it serves as both a museum and a working research facility dedicated to advancing understanding of the car’s impact on society.
A not-for-profit institution, Revs Institute is guided by a mission to collect, preserve, and share the materials that document the evolution of the automobile. Its vast archives, library, and photographic collections provide scholars, enthusiasts, and restorers with unparalleled access to original research resources.
The Miles Collier Collections have been described by The New York Times as America’s finest sports car collection. Each vehicle is maintained in full running order and often demonstrated at historic events, keeping automotive history alive through motion. Exhibited without barriers, visitors can experience legendary machines – from the first Porsche 550-01 to the Silver Arrows Mercedes W154 – up close and in context.
Through its dedication to scholarship, preservation, and public engagement, Revs Institute continues to inspire appreciation for the creativity, innovation, and spirit embodied in the automobile.
