NEWS FLASH: Broad Arrow Smashes World Records with Collection of Unobtanium Supercars on Day One of Amelia Concours Auction

Amelia Island, Florida, March 06, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Broad Arrow Auctions, driven by Hagerty (NYSE: HGTY), set new standards for some of the collector car market’s most sought-after supercars during the first evening of its two-day 2026 Amelia Concours Auction. Held at the Ritz-Carlton, Amelia Island, the auction room was packed as cars sold throughout the evening achieved strong prices, with the Private Collection of Unobtanium Supercars saved for the final, eagerly awaited lots.

The 352-mile, original-owner, well-optioned 2015 Porsche 918 Spyder opened the group with immediate interest, selling for a final $2,975,000 to set a new auction world record price for a non-Weissach model. Next up, the 2017 Ferrari F12tdf, finished in a stunning Ferrari Tailor Made specification of Azzurro California with Blu Scozia and Bianco Avus stripes over Blu Sterling leather, ignited an instant bidding battle between no less than five bidders in the room. After an extended competition as bidders on the phones jumped in as well, the single-owner car showing less than 100 miles sold for a final world record price of $4,185,000.

The virtually new, 16-mile, single-owner 2021 Ferrari Monza SP2 entered the Ritz-Carlton ballroom as the very first example ever offered at auction in North America, and it left setting a new world record auction price of $4,955,000. This nearly doubles the previous highest public price paid for an SP2. The star of the sale, an original-owner, as-new 2003 Ferrari Enzo, one of a mere dozen North American-delivery examples factory-finished in the ultra-rare Nero D.S., opened with an enthusiastic bid of $10,000,000 on the phone. The bidding quickly jumped to $12,000,000, with several bidders on the phones battling it out before new bidders joined from the room. After a heated back-and-forth, the Ferrari sold for a final $15,185,000 to a bidder on the phone, becoming the second most valuable Enzo ever sold at auction.

Closing out the Private Collection was a 1988 Porsche 959 Sport, one of a mere 29 rare U.S.-market lightweight 959 Sport models and part of the single group of eight examples of the groundbreaking car officially imported to the U.S. through Porsche Motorsport in 1988. Another sustained competition broke out for the incredible example of Porsche’s first supercar, with multiple bidders in the room and over the phones driving the final price to $5,505,000, a new world record price for a 959 Sport at auction. 

Outside the collection, a highly anticipated 2005 Porsche Carrera GT closed out the first night of the auction, with a statement-making opening bid of $5,000,000. Offered without reserve, limitation number 0555 is the singular Paint-to-Sample Gulf Blue over Ascot Brown Carrera GT delivered to the U.S. The exquisite, low-mileage example of the ultimate analog supercar of the 2000s saw new bidders raise their paddles multiple times as Broad Arrow’s Principal Auctioneer, Lydia Fenet, called “going twice”. The Carrera GT eventually sold for a final $6,715,000. This more than doubles the previous auction record price for the model. 

Broad Arrow’s 2026 Amelia Concours Auction continues on Saturday, March 7 at 10:30 a.m. ET at The Ritz-Carlton, Amelia Island. Follow the auction action live at broadarrowauctions.com. An official press release and complete results will be issued following the close of the sale.
