PHOENIX, Ariz., Jan. 26, 2026 – RM Sotheby’s launched the 2026 auction season at the Arizona Biltmore Resort & Spa, achieving $63 million in total sales during its 28th annual Arizona auction. Held as part of Arizona Car Week, the single-day sale posted a 94% sell-through rate, with bidding participation from collectors across 23 countries.
“Arizona sets the tone for the year ahead,” said Gord Duff, President of RM Sotheby’s. “It’s one of those sales where you truly see the full spectrum of the market, from pre-war greats like Duesenbergs to modern Ferraris, and everything in between. Ferrari’s halo cars are having a moment, as we’ve seen in recent weeks, and we’re seeing the same strength at the top of the Porsche market, with cars like the Carrera GT setting new benchmarks by significant margins. Achieving $63 million in a single-day sale marks our strongest Arizona result of the decade. It’s shaping up to be an exciting year for RM Sotheby’s and the collector car community.
