Palm Springs, CA – October 16, 2012 – Local parking lot car shows and cable TV programs about collector cars have become part of the conversation for classic car enthusiasts, the hobbyist, or the investor; and the investment opportunity has never been better.

Only 30 days away from the first strike of the gavel, McCormick’s Collector Car Auction in Palm Springs will soon be adding to the excitement with well over 500 highly collectable cars scheduled to go across the auction block starting Friday, November 16, with the last car to roll through Sunday evening, November 18, 2012. A Palm Springs fixture for more than 26 years, Keith McCormick and his semi-annual car auction have hit upon a formula that works – buyer/seller-friendly fee structures, straightforward transactions and hands-on support, all in a stunning, legendary location. Combined, this philosophy has led the McCormick’s team to back-to-back-to-back record auction revenues.

“While I’d like to take all the credit for our very high rate of sale and longevity, I have to acknowledge that my very skilled team and this incomparable setting are the real draw,” says McCormick. “As of today we have more than 90% of our spots filled for our November auction. Who wouldn’t want to visit Palm Springs every November and February to wander the rows of these timeless pieces of history in search of that rare find – that special Palm Springs ‘barn car’?”

McCormick’s continues to be known for its marquee stable of Corvettes and American muscle cars. But Ferraris, Porsches and more can be found from abroad, including a highly-desirable 1966 21-window VW Microbus in pristine condition, scheduled to go across the block on Saturday. McCormick’s Palms Springs Collector Car Auction holds two events a year in February and November. The 53rd auction is scheduled for November 16-18, 2012.
