Q2 2025 Report: The Collector & Exotic Car Market

Auction-realized prices and the public-market backdrop

A softer spring against a strong comparison: collector-car value fell year over year on a quieter calendar and a lighter top of the market, even as the listed makers diverged, Ferrari resilient while Porsche and the mass makers absorbed the tariff.

What the data shows

A quieter calendar met a demanding comparison. Value fell about thirty-one percent like-for-like to $255.7 million, and the top of the market thinned: the high was a Lamborghini Miura SV at $4.46 million, well below the marque leaders of the flagship quarters. May carried the bulk at roughly $133 million as the spring marquee sales did the work, while Mecum cleared $142 million on volume. The softness sat in the calendar and the top lots, not in a broad collapse.
