First time - we're not "car" people - Stopped bc car-enthusiast friends suggested it. We are not car enthusiasts, however we are history buffs. The fact it said "museum" made it enough for us to try. It was priced well, well-organized, interesting, visually stunning with the exhibitions of SO many vintage cars. The placards by each car was great for someone very visual, like me. There were also displays on the human stories involving the car companies. The exhibits' traffic patterns were logical as well. Very interesting for non-car people!

An absolutely incredible experience! - This place is incredible. The displays are one of a kind and the staff is wonderful. They are welcoming and knowledgeable and ready to answer questions and explain the details. The cars and building are an experience that any architect, engineer or car enthusiast will love. Definitely an unforgettable experience. Would visit again!

Great museum for classic car lovers - Wow! What a museum with so many great cars. Who knew about Indiana's automotive history. Plan on spending 3-4 hours here, and you can spend a lot longer.

A Pleasant Surprise! - Auburn not being a huge town we thought this would be a nice way to burn an hour. We were wrong. There is an endless amount of vehicles and history to explore. The main building plus the secondary building with multi levels of cars, trucks and a few surprises. One hour turned into four hours and you could easily spend more time. Make sure you check out the restrooms in the main building second floor. Well worth stopping for and give yourself some time to explore.

Super Neat! - Super neat! We aren't super into cars, but we found this museum to still be interesting. The staff members were informative and friendly. Loved the art deco style of the building. The building is also way bigger than I thought it would be. I was definitely impressed, and I highly recommend a visit!

See both Museums - Make sure that you buy the combined ticket and also see the museum next door. If you love art deco you will love this museum. I liked how the museum next door had a large collection of dealer promos. I noticed a lot of daily drivers from the 1980s and 1990s.

Dueseys Auburns & Cords - Oh My! - What a gem! From the striking, original 1930 Art Deco showroom building now preserved as the museum to the stunning cars (and 2 planes!) on display within. Even my 80 year old mother, who hesitantly agreed to tag along but figured she’d just sit while I roamed - thoroughly enjoyed walking through the 3 floors and taking in the gorgeous automobiles. If you’ve ever admired American cars, from the early years to the “golden age” of the 30s, you owe it to yourself to drop in and soak up the Duesenbergs, Auburns and Cords. (Several other makers are represented also.) The collection represent some truly amazing automotive history, innovation and design milestones.

Prepare to be dazzled - An equal to Chicago's Museum of Art, New York's Metropolitan, or Paris' Louvre, the display and setting of automotive art defies description....there is none more enriching than the ACD. The 20th century's driving affection (and addiction) is perfectly centered between horse & buggy era then, and the electric evolution now. Treat yourself here, in Auburn, Indiana, before you exit this nugget we share : planet earth.
