Summary
It was perhaps the surprise of the weekend. At the Gooding auction in Scottsdale, an unrestored Mercedes Benz 300 SL topped the estimated price by 50%, making it 30% more expensive than a fully restored example that was also on offer. However, this was not the only surprise of the two-day auction, as many price records were celebrated. This report reflects the mood, analyzes the results and lists them in detail, supplemented by over 50 pictures of the auctioned vehicles.

On average, buyers paid USD 449,650 (Euro 333,000 or CHF 409,000) per vehicle, which, including surcharges/commissions, meant a price just above the median estimate.
