Top Ten Italian Auto Museums


If you want to take a tour of the greatest automotive museums in the world, it's kind of a no-brainer that you're ideally going to start in Italy; home of Alfa Romeo, birthplace of the Ferrari, and stomping grounds of the Lamborghini. Simply put, no country has been responsible for more top-tier, beautifully built, adrenaline boosting, jealousy inspiring cars than Italy.

If Italy sounds a little out of the way, well, think of it this way; if you shop around for a good deal on airfare and a hotel room, you can take a weekend trip for less than a thousand bucks, and that's something like 1/100 the cost of actually buying a Ferrari Testarossa. If you’re a serious car collector, then you practically owe it to yourself to make a pilgrimage to the Holy Land of automotive excellence.

I recently made a whistle-stop trip to Italy with my Dad to watch the Mille Miiglia and visit the Ferrari Museum.
