Car museums are nothing new and if you're into American muscle cars, you're better off driving up across the state line to the Corvette Museum in Bowling Green, KY. What makes the Lane Motor Museum different is that it is home to the largest collection of European cars in the US. All the classic British cars I grew up seeing... More

Fun museum of little unique cars. There is only one car in the whole place that you can touch, but you can get inside of it and get your picture taken. If you are looking for classic muscle cars, this is NOT the place for you. Skip the garage cars, nothing special there.

So many interesting vehicles and motorcycles. A hidden gem for anyone who appreciates cars. And a very affordable entrance fee. Allow plenty of time as there is a lot to see!

We were driving through Nashville and had some time to kill. Stopped to visit this museum. So happy we did. Our kids loved it. They also had covered parking so our dog was comfortable while we explored the museum. Well worth the admission price.... Kids were only $3.00. Very well done.

If you like cars, you'll greatly enjoy this place. it specializes in rare and hard to find cars and some motorcycles. There are prototypes and lots of small productions models. Rare, rare, rare. This is one of the best automotive museums I've seen throughout my US and European travels. Go here. $9. Open 10-5pm, closed tues and weds. Enjoy!

We visited this great car museum whilst on a road trip around the deep South, this was not originally on our itinerary but as we were running ahead of time we decided to visit as it had gotten great reviews on trip advisor. There are so many great and unusual cars here , we were both fascinated and impressed, it... More

If vintage cars are your thing, you must see this collection. There are rare and unique cars most have never seen. Cars with propellers?? Yes they have them. Three wheeled cars, mini cars, vintage and cars from different countries are all here.

The museum is closed on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. I am not a car lover nor a museum lover, but this was really special. My husband loves vintage cars and to see the joy on his face as we walked through the exhibition, made it all worthwhile. Like a previous reviewer said, it is not a normal car show, it had... More

Hi Colleen, Thank you so much for your great review! I'm so glad that you enjoyed your visit to the museum! I wanted to write a response because I was curious about the headline for your review - "Jip, for car lovers". I noticed that your profile said you were from South Africa so maybe 'jip' means something different there... More

Loved this self-guided car museum. It was unlike any other I have visited (and I've been to several), particularly with its unusual eastern European vehicles. There were cars, campers, vans, bicycles, motorbikes, motorcycles, folding utility vehicles, and my personal favorite, the aeroluge. You have to see some of these to believe them. Well worth the price of admission, even for... More

This museum specializes in the rare and unique. Saw things here that we haven't seen elsewhere. It has a large collection. Plan on spending an hour or more exploring.
