Ferrari 250 LM by Scaglietti (1964) - as lot 250 at the RM auction in Arizona on January 15/16, 2015

Although the estimated price had raised even higher expectations, RM set a new record with the 250 LM at USD 9.625 million (EUR 8.276 million, CHF 8.47 million).

New records were also set for the Ferrari 275 GTS from 1966 (USD 2.365 million) and the Ferrari 288 GTO (USD 2.75 million) from 1984. The same was achieved with the surprisingly expensive Ferrari 365 GT4 BB from 1974, which found a new owner for USD 511,500.

Of the ten most expensive cars sold, eight came from Ferrari, with only the Lamborghini Miura SVJ from 1971 (USD 1.897 million) and the Porsche 904 GTS from 1965 (USD 1.65 million) managing to break into the phalanx of the prancing horse.

Surprisingly high prices

However, there were also records outside of Ferrari's largest brand contingent of around 20 cars. A 1971 Mercedes-Benz 280 SE 3.5 Cabriolet, for example, was knocked down for USD 473,000.

A 1969 Porsche 911 S Targa with a soft rear window fetched USD 286,000, beating the estimate of USD 175,000 to 225,000 by a wide margin.

The 1984 Audi Sport Quattro, unusual for Americans, found a new owner for USD 401,500 and a new record was also set for the 1975 Lamborghini Urraco at USD 126,500.

Rolls-Royce Phantom II Shooting Brake (1930) - as lot 104 at the RM auction in Arizona on January 15/16, 2015

A 1930 Rolls-Royce Phantom II Shooting Brake also clearly exceeded expectations, practically doubling its estimated price at USD 181,500.

But there were also disappointments

American cars did not have it easy at the RM this time, as the offers that fell well short of expectations mainly included US vehicles such as the De Soto Adventurer Coupé from 1956, the Studebaker Sky Hawk Coupé from 1956 and the Ford Mustang Boss 302 Kar Kraft Trans Am from 1970.

However, they were all sold anyway, albeit at just over half the estimate, as they were offered without a minimum price, like around half of the vehicle fleet.

Unsaleables

However, 13 vehicles for which not enough was offered fared even worse.

Ferrari Dino 246 GT 'L-Series' by Scaglietti (1970) - as lot 248 at the RM auction in Arizona on January 15/16, 2015

It must be said, however, that the bidders were not stingy here either and that it was probably more due to the high expectations of the consignors that an early Dino 246 GT from 1970 did not find a new owner despite the highest bid of USD 460,000 or a Mercedes Benz 300 SL Roadster from 1962 at a maximum of USD 1.55 million.

The unorthodox

The salt in the soup at auctions is not the well-known classics, but the cars that you don't see every day. This certainly included the aforementioned Audi Sport Quattro, the Kaiser-Darrin, but also the Ghia L6.4 from 1961, which found a new owner for USD 412,500 (EUR 354,750, CHF 363,000).

The Bugatti EB 110 GT from 1993 is also very rare and probably still undervalued, but did not sell at the highest bid of USD 570,000.

Two Sunbeam Tigers, a 1965 Harrington Coupé and a 1967 Mk II were looking for new owners in Arizona.

Sunbeam Tiger Mk I Coupe by Harrington (1965) - as lot 137 at the RM auction in Arizona on January 15/16, 2015

Both were successful, albeit not quite at the expected prices. However, USD 187,000 for the Coupé and USD 137,500 for the Mk II are certainly noteworthy prices.
The last lot of the auction was also unusual but nonetheless likeable, a Morris Minor from the series around the millionth car, which was built in 1961 and found a hopefully good new home for USD 30,250 (Euro 26,015, CHF 26,620), just under 25% below the estimate.

Results of the RM auctions on January 15 and 16, 2015

The list shows all vehicles offered with estimated prices and highest bids ("Hbid") in USD as well as sales prices ("VPrice", incl. surcharge/commissions) in USD, Euro and CHF. The conversion was carried out at the daily exchange rate (1 USD = 0.86 Euro, 1 USD = 0.88 CHF). In the "% Est" column, the sales price (incl. surcharge/commissions) is compared with the average estimated value. Vehicles without a highest bid in the "HBid" column were withdrawn. The "NoR" column marks bids that were auctioned without a minimum price with "yes". All information without guarantee.
