As far back as he can remember, fast cars were always part of Miles C. Collier’s life. His grandmother used to tinker with cars before he was born. His dad and uncle raced sports cars in the 1930s. And later, Collier started racing and collecting cars, himself. “I think I am genetically programmed to like automobiles,” Collier said with a faint smile, surrounded by sleek, shiny Porsches inside the Naples car museum he founded, Revs Institute .
