Κάθε χρόνο την δεύτερη εβδομάδα του Αυγούστου, όπου γίνεται το Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance στο Monterey αλλάζουν χέρια εκατοντάδες συλλεκτικών και σπάνιων αυτοκινήτων. Αυτό συνέβη και φέτος, όπου τα εκατοντάδες αυτοκίνητα που βγήκαν στις δημοπρασίες των διαφόρων οίκων, έπιασαν τιμή μεγαλύτερη των 390 εκατ. Ο μέσος όρος της τιμής κάθε αυτοκινήτου που βγήκε στο σφυρί ήταν 500.000 δολάρια, νούμερο που δεν πρέπει να σου προκαλεί έκπληξη, μιας και στο Pebble Beach

πωλούνται σχεδόν το 40% των πιο ακριβών αυτοκινήτων που βγαίνουν σε δημοπρασία κάθε χρόνο.

Η πιο ακριβή συλλογή ήταν φυσικά η Pinnacle Portfolio που έπιασε τα 67 εκατ. δολάρια, με 7 μοντέλα της Ferrari να βρίσκονται μέσα στα δέκα πιο ακριβά αυτοκίνητα που πουλήθηκαν φέτος. Η ακριβότερη ήταν μια Ferrari 250 LM Coupe που έπιασε τα 17,6 εκατ. δολάρια, ενώ το φθηνότερο μοντέλο μέσα στα δέκα πρώτα, ήταν μια Ferrari 275 S/340 που δημοπρατήθηκε για 8 εκατ. δολάρια. Τα άλλα τρία μοντέλα της πρώτης δεκάδας ήταν μια 1998 McLaren F1 LM Coupe, μια 1953 Jaguar C-Type Lightweight Roadster και μια 1982 Porsche 956 Coupe.

Τα αποτελέσματα του οίκου RM Sotheby’s τα είδαμε, όπως και αυτά του Bonhams με τον οίκο Gooding & Co. να πουλά περισσότερα από 115 αυτοκίνητα συνολικού κόστους άνω των 128 εκατ. δολαρίων. Η 1961 250 GT SWB California Spider έπιασε τα 16,83 εκατ. δολάρια, ενώ μια 250 GT SWB Berlinetta Speciale τα 16,5 εκατ. δολάρια. Η 1982 Porsche 956 που κέρδισε το Le Mans το 1983 έπιασε τα 10,12 εκατ. δολάρια, ενώ η 1960 Porsche RS60 έπιασε τα 5,4 εκατ. δολάρια.
