The Sarasota Classic Car Museum was located at 5500 North Tamiami Trail, Sarasota, Florida, United States. It housed about 150 vintage cars of all types and motorcycles in a 60,000-square-foot (5,600 m2) facility with constantly rotating collection.[1] The museum displayed rare cars and ones owned by famous people.[2]

The museum had an Italian Car Collection which included cars from Alfa Romeo, Ferrari, and Rivolta. It closed in June 2023 after the land owner, New College of Florida, terminated its lease.
