Mecum’s Kissimmee auction is one of the company’s biggest events of the year — and for 2021, it set a new record as the largest single auction event in the company’s 34-year history.
At Osceola Heritage Park, 2,030 cars went to new owners over ten days for a final total of $122.8m.
Then, a few days later, Mecum hosted an extension of the Kissimmee sale at Muscle Car City in Punta Gorda, Florida, selling another 200 mostly GM muscle cars for an additional $18.4m.
Combined, those events bring Mecum’s January total to a whopping $141.2m.
