DEARBORN, Mich. — February 2, 2026 —The Automotive Hall of Fame (AHF), the world’s most prestigious institution honoring individuals who have shaped and advanced global mobility, will mark two milestone moments in Naples, Florida, celebrating automotive heritage, leadership, and community through a pair of signature events.

Miles Collier, founder of Revs Institute (Revs), will be honored with the 2026 Distinguished Service Citation by the Automotive Hall of Fame on Friday, February 6, at the Jetport Reception. Presented in partnership with Naples Automotive Experience, Cars on Fifth and duPont REGISTRY, the award recognizes Collier’s extraordinary contributions to automobile heritage and his lifelong dedication to preserving, studying, and elevating the automobile as a cultural and historical force through research, preservation, and scholarship.

Miles Collier has done more than preserving automobiles. He has elevated them as objects of culture, design, and historical meaning,” said Sarah Cook, President of the Automotive Hall of Fame.

“Through his vision and leadership, he continues to redefine the standards by which automobile history is studied, preserved, and shared. We are proud to recognize the depth and durability of his impact.”

The following evening, the Automotive Hall of Fame will host REVEAL 2026 at the Hamilton Harbor Yacht Club, where AHF will officially unveil its Class of 2026 Inductees. REVEAL 2026 is open to the public, and tickets are available for purchase HERE. The event brings together collectors, enthusiasts, and industry leaders for the first announcement of the individuals who will comprise the next class of Hall of Fame honorees. Attendees also receive complimentary tickets to the Cars on Fifth show in downtown Naples on February 7^th.

Together, the Naples Automotive Experience and REVEAL 2026 underscore Naples’ growing role as a destination where automotive heritage, culture, and community intersect. With events spanning both venues, the Automotive Hall of Fame’s presence highlights the unique ability of Naples to host meaningful celebrations of excellence within the global automotive landscape.

“We are honored to be a part of the presentation of this well-deserved prestigious award to Miles Collier as the Automotive Hall of Fame joins with the community of Naples in recognizing his many significant contributions to the automotive world and to Collier County,” noted Naples Automotive Experience President Tom O’Riordan.
