Despite less than ideal weather, sales were hot in Arizona at the 33rd Barrett-Jackson Auction Scottsdale, with a record-breaking 98 percent sales rate.
There were no star cars, such as last year's $1.1 million Jaguar XKSS, but plenty of celebrities came to sell and buy automobiles.

A Friday highlight was Survivor host Jeff Probst's story of his first date in the family 1966 Corvette, a 427-cid coupe with 435 hp; the price of the car soared to $62,640. Reggie Jackson, Bob Seger and George Benson were also on hand looking for new rides.
