At the top of the regular lot results was a 2019 McLaren Senna which brought a winning bid of $1,457,000 against its MSRP of roughly $840,000—a nice profit for the seller. Runner-up honors went to the six-wheeled 2014 Mercedes-Benz G63 6X6, one of just over 100 built, which sold for $1,210,000. The G63 6X6 was roughly a half-million-dollar car when new. The third top-seller was a 2012 Lexus LFA Nurburgring Edition, which brought $918,500.

Several highly- anticipated cars were earmarked for charity, which brought greatly exaggerated prices for their tax write-off value. The 2020 Toyota Supra, the very first production car with VIN 20201, sold for a staggering $2.1 million (proceeds to benefit the American Heart Association and Bob Woodruff Foundation) while the first 2019 Ford GT Heritage Edition brought $2.5 million to be donated to United Way for Southeastern Michigan.
