Broad Arrow Auction Goes All-Porsche

Could you organize an auction where almost two-thirds of the lots are made up of a single car model? Well, Broad Arrow did it — and did it well — on April 26 during the “Air|Water” event, holding a Porsche-only sale that featured no fewer than 36 examples of the 911.

Some figures: 55 cars offered and 33 sold (60%). These figures show a slight drop compared to 2024: back then, 57 cars were offered before the auction and 38 changed hands, with a sell-through rate of 66.66%. Also in terms of value, there was no growth: the estimated total was $20,395,000 (lower than last year’s $26,465,000), and even though all forecasts pointed to a worse result, the final total was only slightly lower than in 2024 — $14,438,300 compared to $15,348,640.

In truth, this trend mainly affected mid-range Porsches. Of the 5 cars estimated above one million, 4 were sold (with one added post-sale), an 80% success rate. Meanwhile, in the sub-$100,000 category, aided by the total absence of reserves, the success rate was 100%. In the $100,000 to $500,000 bracket, only 17 out of 37 sold (about 45%). Perhaps due to the stronger results of the top lots at the expense of “second-tier” cars, the average price rose from $403,912 in 2024 to $437,524 in 2025.
