“This year’s Palm Beach Auction was extraordinary, fueled by the momentum we ignited in Scottsdale,” said Craig Jackson, Chairman and CEO of Barrett-Jackson. “The atmosphere on Super Saturday in Palm Beach felt like it did back in Scottsdale, with excitement fueled in part by the sale of dozens of world-class Resto-Mods. We also enjoyed several inspiring moments throughout our largest three-day Florida auction, including the sale of three vehicles that raised $550,000 for charity.”

The Barrett-Jackson Palm Beach 2019 auction also continued the trend of demand for 1980s and 1990s performance cars that have been a rising segment due to the increased presence of Gen-X and millennial buyers.
