"I would like to thank our clients, our team, and car lovers globally who helped us achieve incredible growth again in 2024,” says Kenneth Ahn, President of Broad Arrow and Hagerty Marketplace. "While most players in the industry saw flat to declining transaction values, Broad Arrow achieved more than 50 percent year-over-year growth in auction sales, with 75 percent year-over-year growth in transaction values across all of Broad Arrow.”
"As collectors' tastes across segments continue to shift, our team has worked diligently to curate our offering to cater to not only the established but also the rising generation of new collectors, with a decidedly younger selection of cars on a value-weighted basis vis-à-vis our key competitors. We are grateful to our clients for their continued trust, and we look forward to expanding our footprint and tailoring our offering as we expand our business to Europe in 2025. Our focus for the first three years was to build a great foundation, and we are now focused on becoming the global leader in the industry.”
Broad Arrow Auctions sold more than $164 million in total sales across four live auctions and three online-only memorabilia auctions in 2024. The company's 2024 auction schedule began with a stand-out sale in its second year as the official auction house of The Amelia, meaningfully exceeding expectations with $63 million in total sales-nearly doubling 2023 results-and a 92 percent sell-through rate. Strong momentum continued at other live auctions throughout the year, with a Porsche-only auction in partnership with the first-ever Air|Water event from the creators of Luftgekühlt ($15.6 million), a flagship Motorlux Auction at the Monterey Jet Center ($71.5 million-compared to $57.5 million in 2023), and a new auction in partnership with The Chattanooga Motorcar Festival ($12.3 million). New for 2024, Broad Arrow Auctions held three online-only memorabilia auctions with great success, attracting bidders from more than 26 countries.
The Broad Arrow Auctions team, led by Barney Ruprecht (Vice President of Auctions), achieved an overall sell-through rate of 92 percent for 820 lots sold (431 cars and 389 memorabilia lots), setting no fewer than 18 world record auction prices. Bidders participated from 37 countries, with a 43 percent increase in the number of registered bidders over 2023, including meaningfully higher bidder growth from outside the United States.
Broad Arrow's top auction sales of 2024 include a diverse lineup of sports, racing, and supercars from the world's most desirable marques, with four of the top ten sales held by hallmark Porsche models from across the brand's illustrious history. The list is led by a superbly preserved 1997 Porsche 911 GT1 Rennversion, which sold for $7,045,000 at Broad Arrow's flagship Monterey Auction. The top three is completed by the extensively documented 1967 Ford GT40 that sold for $4,405,000 at the company's Amelia Auction, followed by the highly optioned 2022 Bugatti Chiron Pur Sport, which also sold at Amelia for $4,047,500.
