The Barrett-Jackson auction, held annually in Scottsdale, Arizona (USA), has become a favorite for celebrities looking to raise thousands of dollars by selling their luxury cars.
This year was no different. During the event, which took place from January 17 to 25, Barrett-Jackson raised an impressive $195.2 million in sales. This figure was slightly below last year’s total, which amounted to $198 million in sales.
“Our Scottsdale auction once again set the tone for what promises to be another incredible year for the collector car hobby,” said Craig Jackson, President and CEO of Barrett-Jackson.
The annual Barrett-Jackson event has been around for 50 years and attracts high-end collectors and investors. This year, it was difficult to predict how much each car would sell for because most of the cars had no reserve price, meaning they would be sold to the highest bidder, regardless of the amount, a Barrett-Jackson spokesperson explained to The New York Post.
Some of the cars presented at this year’s auction included actor and comedian Tim Allen’s 2017 Ford GT, which sold for $800,000, and David Spade’s customized 1978 Ford F-250 Ranger XLT, which went for $98,000.
Also available at auction was Kevin Hart’s 2024 Ford Bronco Custom SUV, which sold for $260,000, and a 2010 Land Rover Range Rover HSE that previously belonged to Friends star Jennifer Aniston, which sold for $32,000.
Out of the total $195.2 million, the Scottsdale auction also raised $5.8 million for charity through the sale of nine vehicles, including a 2026 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1X Stars & Steel Limited Edition, which sold for $2.6 million.
Barrett-Jackson will return to Palm Beach, Florida, for its next auction from April 16 to 18, 2026. After that, Barrett-Jackson will hold its first auction in Columbus at the Ohio Expo Center & State Fairgrounds from June 25 to 27, 2026, and return to Nevada for its Las Vegas auction from September 10 to 12 at the West Hall of the Las Vegas Convention Center.
