RM’s Amelia Island Auction<\/h1>\n

The official auction that runs in conjunction with the Amelia Island Concours is staged by RM. This year they offered 112 cars before Sunday’s main show, selling 88% of them to a total sum of $19 million.<\/p>\n

Two Ferraris really stood out to us. The first was a golden 275 GTB\/4 from ex-Ferrari mechanic Wayne Sparling which sold for $1,265,000 USD. As you can imagine, it was in complete running order plus it looked original in detail. The second was a rare 348 GT Competizione that got $82,500. Currently, these 348s are rarely seen or talked about and we suspect they might go up in value in coming years.<\/p>\n

Two of the top lots at RM were Duesenbergs, but they also had some more affordable performance. We found Dean Martin’s Dual-Ghia, Carol Shelby bought a GT500 Convertible and a Firebird Station Wagon came from the late O’Quinn Collection. These can be found in our feature gallery<\/a> by Richard Owen and Alex Marks. We should also mention this weekend RM is staging another Florida auction in Ft Lauderdale and this unique Bill Mitchell Corvette<\/a> will cross the block.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
