Auctions America by RM will raise the gavel for the first time at the Carlisle Expo Center on Thursday, April 28, kicking off its three-day sale held during Carlisle Events’ 2011 ‘Spring Carlisle’ show. The selection of motor cars on offer represents almost every decade of automobile production, ranging from pre-war classics to late model sports cars, with something suiting almost every collector’s budget. The star of the show is a lovely, original 1931 Cadillac Model 355 Roadster (estimate: $125,000 - $150,000). This automobile has approximately 74,900 miles reading on the odometer, and believed to be actual from new. It was formerly a part of the famed "Movie World" collection in Ventura, California and James Brucker Sr. used this car for many years as his personal driver (1950-1965). Although never restored, this 1931 Cadillac Roadster remains beautifully preserved, correct and complete today. As offered, this wonderful classic can be driven and enjoyed exactly as it is. ... less

Auctions America by RM posted $17,248,846** in total sales at its annual Collector Cars of Fort Lauderdale auction event this weekend. The top seller, a barn-find 1963 Shelby Cobra (chassis no. CSX 2080), changed hands for $467,500 and represents a unique opportunity to make a direct comparison between the rise in a collector car’s value and that of a traded commodity – gold. The matching-numbers CSX 2080, the fifth 289 Cobra built, was purchased by its second private owner in 1981 with $30,000† worth of gold coins. The cumulative average market gold price that year was $460 per ounce. The car was driven only once by its new owner and then parked for the next thirty years, leaving it in very original, unrestored condition for its appearance on the auction podium in Fort Lauderdale. Since 1981 gold values have fluctuated, but have steadily been on the rise over the last decade and reached an all-time high on March 2, 2011, closing at $1,437.20 per ounce. Based on the current gold m... less
DescriptionAuctions America by RM was founded in the summer of 2010 following the purchase of the Auburn Automotive Auction Park in Auburn, Indiana by RM Auctions.

Rounding out the Auctions America calendar is the well-established auction in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.
As a subsidiary of RM Auctions, Auctions America is backed by the largest car auction house in the world. Auctions America is founded on the principles of providing the best service, prompt payment, and honesty and integrity in all areas of the auction process.
