Broad Arrow Auctions, a Hagerty company, saw strong results at its second annual Porsche Auction in partnership with Air|Water on April 26 at The Hangar at the OC Fairgrounds in Costa Mesa, California. The all-Porsche auction totaled $15.3 million in sales, with 76 percent of all lots sold. A passion for Porsche drew thousands of bidders and attendees, as Broad Arrow Auctioneer Thomas Forrester conducted several bidding contests across the nearly four-hour sale.
There was strong attendance and a bustling energy throughout the sale, and the results prove market demand for very special, exceedingly rare Porsches. The top sale of the Porsche Air|Water Auction was an exceptional 1989 RUF CTR Yellowbird, chassis no. 023, one of a mere 29 W09 Group C Turbo Ruf (CTR) Yellowbirds built and the singular example specified with a lightweight interior. A truly important modern collector car, the RUF CTR Yellowbird saw strong bidding from the opening bid, eventually selling for a final $4,680,000.
We’re grateful to our bidders, consignors, and our partners at Air|Water, and look forward to continuing to bring the best-of-the-best Porsches to market throughout the year.
