America’s concours elegance season began in earnest with the Amelia Island Concours d’ Elegance this past weekend, here are some surprising auction results.

Last year, Gooding & Company’s Amelia Island Auction led the pack with a 95% sell-through rate and 36 million dollars in sales over one afternoon.

In the past two decades, RM Sotheby’s has sold thousands of collectible cars alongside the Amelia Island Concours d’Elegance. This year, the old-timer is bringing a 10-car collection of “youngtimers”: the budding classics of the 80s, 90s, and early noughties.

Headlined by the Boulton Collection, an unparalleled array of prewar cars and motoring antiques, Bonhams leads Amelia Island in automotive diversity.

Every year, far away from the harsh, salt-strewn north, Gooding & Company sneaks off to rust-free Arizona to offer a wide range of pristine motors.
