Collectible Car auctions favored by 1st timers

Collectibles are hotter than ever, if the first two days at the Barrett-Jackson collector-car auctions near West Palm Beach are any indication.Combined sales from Thursday and Friday totaled nearly $10 million — and memorabilia sales up almost 50 percent from last year, Barrett-Jackson reports. Attendance numbers at the Americraft Expo Center at the South Florida Fairgrounds climbed nine percent from last year, they said, with around 33,300 visitors.

Barrett-Jackson reported that 1/2 of all bidders were 1st timers.  Could this be a growing trend of ultimate car-enthusiast, new collectors. 

Not only is the auction and displays the ultimate car-enthusiast’s playground, so is DFW Elite Toy Museum and DFW Elite Auto Rental.  Both with showrooms full of eye popping exotics.
