Barrett Jackson 2026 Palm Beach Auction: Top 10 Results & Highlights

Record-setting $3.19M Huayra headlines $48.5M Palm Beach result as 100% sell-through

Barrett-Jackson closed its 2026 Palm Beach Auction with a result that reset expectations. Over three days, April 16 to 18, the South Florida Fairgrounds hosted 610 vehicles, 1,617 registered bidders, and a 100 percent sell-through. Total vehicle sales crossed $47 million, with overall auction revenue exceeding $48.5 million, with automobilia on its own bringing in $1.5 million, its most successful automobilia auction in the Palm Beach event’s history.

We already spotlighted the headline lot yesterday, Lot #747, the 1-of-100 2016 Pagani Huayra, finished in Gray Clement with exposed blue carbon fiber, presented with just 2,331 miles. When the gavel fell, the Italian hypercar fetched $3,190,000, making it the highest-selling vehicle in Palm Beach auction history. It also exceeds the Huayra’s duPont REGISTRY Index (dRi) value of $2,499,950.

The Huayra led a Top 10 dominated by modern European performance. Right behind it was the 2025 Ferrari SF90 XX Stradale, which achieved $1,870,000, followed by a 2020 Ferrari 488 Pista at $819,500.

 

 

“Our 2026 Palm Beach auction welcomed a record number of bidders and was one of the most impressive dockets we’ve ever assembled, featuring the perfect blend of classic and contemporary collectible vehicles. Now we’re revving up for our inaugural 2026 Columbus Auction at the Ohio Expo Center & State Fairgrounds in June.” - Craig Jackson, chairman and CEO, Barrett-Jackson

Porsche maintained a strong presence across multiple lots of the 992.1. A 2024 Porsche 911 S/T, limited to just 1,963 examples, sold for $665,500, while three Porsche 911 GT3 RS Weissach examples traded between $385,000 and $495,000, respectively. A 2021 Mercedes-Benz AMG GT Black Series Project One Edition reached $770,000, reinforcing demand for limited production performance models. Offered exclusively to those who were able to secure an allocation for the AMG-One hypercar, only 40 units were produced worldwide, with the U.S. allocation estimated at 25 units.

Beyond the headline consignments, a 1951 Chevrolet 3100 restomod brought $330,000, showing continued interest in custom builds. Classic American muscle also remained relevant, with a 1970 Dodge Hemi Challenger R/T closing at $368,500.

Philanthropy also played a central role at this year’s event, with four charity vehicles generating $1,635,000, including a 2026 GM Defense Infantry Squad Vehicle-Utility at $1,000,000 for the Medal of Honor Foundation. Kyle Busch and his wife, Samantha, announced that a portion of the proceeds from the sale of her 1957 Ford Thunderbird convertible, Lot #457, will benefit the Samantha and Kyle Busch Bundle of Joy Fund, which supports infertility education and awareness.

Barrett-Jackson now shifts focus to its June Columbus debut, carrying momentum from Palm Beach into its next expansion phase. It will be followed by a return to Nevada later this year, with its Las Vegas Auction scheduled for September 10 to 12, 2026, at the West Hall of the Las Vegas Convention Center.
