It’s one of the most iconic hotspots for stunning classic cars with its celebrated Concours d’Elegance and intense auctions, and because of that, Amelia Island has become synonymous with incredible cars. When it comes to auctions arriving at the anticipated venue, it takes a lot to stand out, and that’s what Broad Arrow Auctions did, with an inaugural action that achieved a total of $31 million in sales and featured some incredibly rare, beautiful, powerful, and iconic pieces of automotive excellence, both modern and classic.
