Top star of this year’s Monterey auctions was RM Auctions, whose tighter, more exclusive, two-night event produced an astounding $125 million worth of sales achieved from 120 exclusive lots, with an 87 percent total sell-through rate.

History was made on Saturday night when the ultra-rare and ultra-desirable 1967 Ferrari 275 GTB/4*S NART Spider rocketed its way into the record books, selling for an incredible $27,500,000 (including buyer’s premium).
