The 2025 Fall Carlisle Collector Car Auction ended the year on a high note, marking Carlisle Auctions’ strongest performance of the season. Held October 2–3 at the Carlisle Expo Center, the two-day event drew collectors, bidders, and enthusiasts from across the country to celebrate the close of another successful year in classic car trading.
With nearly 450 vehicles crossing the block, the auction offered everything from century-old automobiles to modern collectibles, along with memorabilia and charity consignments. In total, the auction registered more than $5.5 million in sales, according to Tony Cline, Carlisle Auctions’ director of auction operations.
“We are pleased to end the season on such a high note,” Cline said. “The 2025 Fall Carlisle Collector Car Auction featured a variety of beautiful consignments”
The top four sellers reflected a mix of American performance and classic style: a 1958 Chevrolet Corvette topped the charts at $145,800, followed by a 1963 Corvette at $127,500, a 1958 Chevrolet Impala at $98,280, and a 1969 Chevrolet Camaro that sold for $87,480. All prices include applicable fees.
A new highlight this year was the “All-Import Hour,” featuring a lineup of foreign classics that performed well with bidders. The hour’s top seller, a 1965 Porsche 356, fetched $66,000.
Charitable giving also played a key role in the event’s success. Carlisle Auctions raised $10,100 for the “Fund the Firehouse” initiative and $16,750 for Harley’s Haven Dog Rescue, including proceeds from a 1952 GMC 1-Ton Pickup.
With the Fall Carlisle auction officially wrapped, attention now shifts to Spring Carlisle, scheduled for April 22–26, 2026. The next auction will take place April 23–24 at the Carlisle Expo Center, promising another round of high-energy bidding and classic car excitement.
