Throughout Arizona Auction Week, we bring you daily results as reported to us by Hagerty, the classic car insurance company and pricing-guide publisher, which staffs each of the venues and tracks the sales. These are raw results witnessed by Hagerty staffers and may not include post-sale transactions. Figures do include the buyer’s premium.

Nine of the top-10 sales so far at the classic car auctions taking place this week in Arizona have involved — no surprise here — Ferraris.

Thursday, a 1966 Ferrari 275 GTB Competizione coupe sold for $9.405 million at Bonhams. But that figure was topped Friday when RM rolled a 1964 Ferrari 250 LM coupe across its block and the car sold for $9.625 million.

The top sale Friday at Gooding & Company also was a Ferrari, a 1959 Ferrari 250 GT long-wheelbase California Spyder selling for $7.7 million.

The top four sales Friday at RM and three of the top four at Gooding were Ferraris. Combined, those seven Ferraris sold for just shy of $29.4 million.

Overall through Friday, the Arizona auctions have generated $187.6 million in sales at an average price of $105,557. A year ago through Friday, total sales were $152.2 million and the average transaction price was $97.795.

RM wrapped up its 16th annual Arizona auction Friday with seven cars selling for more than $1 million and with $59.8 million in total sales, a significant increase compared to $43.5 million a year ago. The average transaction price at RM this year was more than $570,000, a big advance from the $410,000 figure in 2014.

Gooding and Silver conclude their sales Saturday while auction action continues through Sunday at Barrett-Jackson and at Russo and Steele. Bonhams held its one-day sale Thursday.

  1. Larry,
    how do you comment the fact, that at Bonhams only three of the ten offered Ferraris were sold? End of the hype? Coincidence?
    Peter

  2. It’s a game of what’s my car worth to you (the bidder) vs. what my car’s worth to me (the owner who sets the reserve price at which I’m willing to sell). With prices paid going up, so are owner’s expectations of what their cars are worth.
