Top Ten List of 2020’s Biggest Auction Sales So Far
2020 is still young. But, the global economic collapse due to the COVID-19 pandemic has many auto enthusiasts debating whether it is a good time to buy or sell a car right now. Yet, the strange thing about car auctions is that historic and rare cars will always remain historic and rare. So, those types of cars will always command a better price than others, regardless of the world economic stability. Even with some of the trepidation in the automotive community, some cars are still this selling at enormous price points.
According to a post from Classic and Sports Car, they have tallied the sales from January 1 through March 31 of this young year and developed a list of the strongest sellers so far. Interestingly, only three cars were made after the year 2000. Here are the top ten sellers on the list.

This list of the top ten sold vehicles at auction so far this year proves that even in a questionable economy, people are still willing to part with money if the historicity and rareness of the vehicle are sufficient enough. It will be interesting to see how the rest of 2020 pans out for the automotive connoisseur. Many prestigious events have been canceled or postponed. So, this may create more pent up demand for those auctions and events that do remain on the schedule. In either case, 2020 has started out with some strong sellers.
