By featuring the major shows last week, we can now focus on the auctions and smaller events.<\/p>\n<p>Some of the most talked about action came from the auction houses which sold a total of $133 million dollars in cars. Prices were high due to a low US dollar and that helped two California Spyders reach record levels. Gooding &amp; Co sold the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.supercars.net\/cars\/1490.html\">world&#8217;s oldest running automobile<\/a> and also snagged the top sale of the weekend with their Boat Tail Bentley. A special mention should go to Christies who sold Steve McQueen&#8217;s Lusso for a staggering $2.31 million.<\/p>\n<p>Friday was busy, and many were torn between two events. Our friend Stephan Bauer decided to visit the Concorso Italiano and capture everything it had to offer. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.supercars.net\/gallery\/119513\/1484\/11.html\">His gallery<\/a> includes the sparkling Lamborghini models and many of the recent supercars to hit the streets.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, we spent the afternoon at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.supercars.net\/gallery\/119513\/1484\/10.html\">the Quail<\/a> and found a delightful collection Cunninghams and Ferrari Series I Cabriolets. Top honors went to a vicious Cunningham C4R, but there were many exciting entries that could have taken the award.<\/p>\n<p>This concludes our Monterey coverage. We would like the thank all the organizers for their hospitality and the volunteers that made these events happen.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A long time coming, but we are now done Monterey.
