Cool exhibit of famous cars (Herbie, Little Miss Sunshine, and Walter White's Aztec). Hear great things of the vault tour . The roof deck is an amazing experience at night.

Incredible cars and motorcycle collection. Amazed by the prototypes, movies , Bugatti, Ferrari and Harley-Davidson vs Indian expo.

Fantastic car museum . Lots of cars from different decades and some from wellknown movies

Loving every minute of the visit! The collection was great, the display was fantastic! We also took the vault tour and it was amazing! Worth every penny...

Surprisingly good museum with interesting exhibits and a good play area for kids. It helps if you are a total gear head.

IF YOU LOVE AUTOMOBILES, THEN THIS IS THE PLACE TO GO! THE PETERSON IS THE GETTY OF ALL AUTO MUSEUMS. ALL I CAN SAY IS WOW!!!!!

The Notorious B.I.G. was shot in a drive-by here (at the red light at Wilshire & Fairfax) after leaving the '97 Soul Train Music Awards.It was believed to be in revenge for the shooting of Tupac.

The ribbons of stainless steel on the exterior of this automotive museum are meant to evoke motion, speed and the lines of a bespoke automobile .

The French "Art Deco " cars are just amazing. Some of the best examples in the world.

Nice display, artistically done. Signage down on the floor so difficult to read without bending over.

Cool vintage cars and nice Porsche selection

Small car collection, but great educational value for the kids on the 2nd floor

A massive 300,000 sq. ft. museum exhibiting more than 200 motor vehicles ranging from retro to the futuristic - perfect for satisfying your auto-lust.

Fantastic selection of automobiles from the past and current.

Fantastic exhibition of automotive history, including many very rare pre-war cars.

Well curated rotating exhibits are worth the price of admission.

Always interesting museum to visit.

Any history lover should take the vault tour . There are some amazing treasures down there!

Check out all kinds of cars from over the years (there's even a Hot Wheels exhibit !) Save a dollar on general admission by buying tickets online.

They have very little respect for home-schoolers! And more then one event in a day throws off the curve! Expected better!

Street parking available. Pictures allowed. Johnny Rockets restaurant located in museum . Allow about two hours to tour the museum .
