Barrett-Jackson’s $198 million Scottsdale auction breaks records — What’s next?

SCOTTSDALE – Kicking off 2025 with a bang, Barrett-Jackson Collector Car Auctions hosted a record-breaking nine-day event in Scottsdale, AZ. The event, which ran from Jan. 18 to 26 at WestWorld Scottsdale, saw more than $198 million in auctions and raised $6.2 million for various charities.

The event ran from Jan. 18 to 26 at WestWorld Scottsdale and featured thousands of collector cars and even more bidders. Featured series’ included a collection of various historic Indianapolis 500 pace cars and a 1977 Ford F-150 known as the “Hoonigan,” inspired by late American professional rally driver Ken Block.

Craig Jackson, CEO of Barrett-Jackson, reflected on the event’s success:

“Last week’s Scottsdale Auction proved that 2025 will be another banner year for the collector car hobby. Starting with our opening night Rock the Block concert headlined by Rock & Roll Hall of Famer Sammy Hagar and continuing through Super Saturday when we lit up the auction block with our top-selling vehicles, we delivered an automotive lifestyle experience that is unequaled. Our nine-day celebration of the collector car hobby was electric from start to finish because of the unprecedented quality of cars we offered. We’re looking ahead to taking this energy to Florida for our 2025 Palm Beach Auction this April.”

Mark your calendars! Barrett-Jackson will be back in the Valley for the 2025 Scottsdale Fall Auction on Oct. 15-18 at WestWorld Scottsdale.
