Opening the auction season in Arizona is an annual tradition for the classic car world. A new year can bring a sense of renewal and growth, introducing new opportunities to acquire one-of-a-kind automobiles. In a time of change, it is reassuring to note that some traditions remain, and so RM Sotheby’s is pleased to announce its return to the historic, Frank Lloyd Wright-designed Arizona Biltmore Resort & Spa on Thursday, 26 January 2023.

Amidst an incomparable setting in the hills above Scottsdale, the resort’s picturesque courtyard will once again provide a scenic backdrop for show cars to compete, with the return of the Arizona Concours d’Elegance earlier that week on 22 January. Registered bidders and their guests gain entry to our auction preview on Wednesday, 25 January, and will experience the quiet splendor of wintertime in the Arizona desert. The highlight of the weekend will be a focused one-day sale set in an icon of American architecture.
