In addition, there are other European classics, leaving only a small proportion for American rarities such as Stutz, Duesenberg or Marmon.

Strong pre-war share

What is surprising, however, is the large proportion of pre-war cars, which make up almost a third of the vehicles. The oldest car is a 1909 Rolls-Royce Silver Ghost Roi from the Belgian "The Silver Fairy", which is looking for a new owner for USD 1 to 1.25 million.

For the Great Gatsbys of this world, however, the two Duesenberg Model Js from 1929/1930 (USD 1 to 1.4 million) or the Isottta Fraschini Tipo 8A S Castagna from 1930 (USD 1.2 to 1.4 million) are more likely to be considered.

The Manxter has a more elegant appearance thanks to its standard-length chassis and flowing body shape. The estimated price of USD 40,000 to 50,000 documents the popularity of these plastic Volkswagen variants. Nevertheless, the car is offered without a reserve price, as are 55 other cars.

Super classics too, of course

The super classics are of course not missing at RM in Amelia Island. From Ferrari, for example, there is a 275 GTB from 1966 (estimated value USD 2.2 to 2.5 million) or a 365 GTB/4 Daytona from 1972 (USD 525,000 to 575,000).
