After examining global luxury trends and the changing collector car marketplace, we turn to the larger question: Has the Golden Age of automobile collecting come and gone, or is it simply changing? Leading collectors and industry voices consider shifting tastes, values, demographics, and definitions of significance, and what they may tell us about the next era of collecting.
The knowledge required to operate, maintain, repair, and restore historic automobiles is disappearing along with the generations who mastered it. Revs experts examine the skills most at risk, what is being done to document and transmit that knowledge, and the role collectors and institutions can play in ensuring these automobiles remain not merely preserved, but understood and operable.
Historic automobiles were never meant to be experienced only as static objects. See, hear, feel and perhaps smell the collection come alive as selected automobiles take to the asphalt. This immersive session explores what is revealed through sound, motion, vibration, and operation that can never be understood from an automobile standing still. Hear, see and feel cars from the collection come to life and take to the asphalt up close and personal.
