Barrett-Jackson car auction in Scottsdale this week

This is the cream of the crop as far as car auctions in the states go. The car show started earlier this week but the big time cars are usually auctioned off on Friday and Saturday.
The event is in its 46th year now and is so big that it covers two weekends. This past weekend and this upcoming weekend. This past weekend was a preview day and automobilia being sold. I watched a little online but there hasnt been any cars being sold until today.
The tv schedule is
Tonight 4:30pm to 10pm on Velocity
Wednesday 5 to 10pm on Velocity
Thursday 5 to 10pm on Velocity
Friday 3 to 11pm on Velocity
Saturday 2 to 7pm on Discovery. 7pm to 11pm on Velocity
Sunday 1 to 6pm on Velocity.
You can also watch online on the website.
The best cars are in the Salon collection. Here is a link to them LINK Dont get me wrong, Friday night and other nights will have 100k+ cars all the way into the millions. I think the Salon is just the highest priced slots on the docket.
Here are a few of the Salon collection
Lot #1350 1970 PLYMOUTH HEMI 'CUDA
>
Lot #1358 1958 CHEVROLET CORVETTE CUSTOM CONVERTIBLE "EYE CANDY"
Lot #1366 1966 JAGUAR XKE SERIES I ROADSTER
Lot #1369 1969 CHEVROLET CORVETTE L88
Lot #1372 2011 FERRARI 458 ITALIA "JUSTIN BIEBER'S" lol
This reminds me of last years 3 Corvettes that were all Vin #1s. These two are sold as a package deal
Lot #1377 1967 PONTIAC FIREBIRD CONVERTIBLE VIN 001
Lot #1377.1 1967 PONTIAC FIREBIRD VIN 002
Lot #1378 1930 DUESENBERG J DUAL-COWL PHAETON
Lot #1380 1956 AUSTIN PRINCESS "JOHN LENNON'S"
Lot #1385 1934 PACKARD EIGHT TOURING 5/7-PASSENGER
Lot #1393 1963 CHEVROLET CORVETTE 327/360 SPLIT-WINDOW "FUELIE"
Ill try and update the thread as it goes along but usually people dont really tune in until the weekend. We also have a poster, nurse, who usually goes to the event and posts pictures of the cars while we are watching them on tv.

I'm a Mopar guy to the bone but that "Eye Candy" Vette is unreal.

Disappointed I didn't see a single IH Scout up for auction.

Was wondering when you'd fire up this thread.
Would have done some nefarious things to get those three.

Those Firebirds were on Gas Monkey- bought for $70K (that was the public transaction on the show, anyway), restored and sold for $650K. It will be interesting to see what they are going for today.
eta: I guess I was too slow typing, as this is being discussed.

Talk about the car that really started it all. The 1977 Honda Civic with only 17,000 miles. What I wouldn't do to put this rare piece of history in my garage.

Thanks for the reminder. That L88 is spectacular.
One of these days Jones, I'm going. You going with me?

I was at Barrett-Jackson with Jenna Jameson's ex-husband when he bought these two bad boys for just over $300K each. He sold one for over $400K a year or so later and she got the other one when they split, not sure what happened to it. We had bidder passes and were on the stage when later that day a Shelby Cobra sold for $5.5 million with owner Carroll Shelby up on stage. Good times.

I love auction season.
My soapbox on american classic cars: the current prices are driven by baby boomer money. Cars that don't have real significance other than being rare due to an option combonation are being sold for multiples vs their normal counterparts. People are buying memories with their disposable income and they want to have a best version they can afford. These cars dont have a worldwide appeal which limits the market. These 60s cars will come down in a few years replaced by the 80s/90s cars (70s cars sucked for the most part). With that being said, the cool vette around the small town wasn't an L88, the fast camaro wasn't a Yanko. The truly special, apex cars are the long term investments. Everything else is speculation.
