Kissimmee Mecum Auction 2023 Preview

The 2022 Mecum Auto Auction broadcast was the first time MotorTrend TV covered the auctions live and it was such a success that they’re doing it again in 2023.

According to the MotorTrend TV press release, the coverage of the Kissimmee Auction in 2022 earned the largest TV audience ever for a Mecum Kissimmee Auction, up 76 percent from the January 2021 broadcast on NBC Sports Network.

“Mecum on MotorTrend is off to a sensational start,” said Alex Wellen, global president and general manager, MotorTrend Group, in a statement. “These auctions are captivating, lively events that our audience undeniably gravitate towards on every one of our platforms. With the very strong performance of Kissimmee, we’re looking forward to delighting America with more live auctions on TV and across our digital platforms throughout the year.”

Coverage of the 2023 Mecum Auto Auction will air on MotorTrend TV on January 6, 7, 11, 12, 13 and 14 from noon Eastern to 6 p.m. Eastern live, with replays following immediately after from 6 p.m. to midnight.

MotorTrend’s Chris Jacobs joins host Scott Hoke with commentators John Kraman, Steven Cox, Bill Stephens and Katie Osborne to bring viewers every minute of action from the auction floor, including “exclusive interviews from the staging lane and the thrilling excitement of every angle of the auction,” according to the press release.

The press release also teases:

Mecum Kissimmee 2023 will present the most diverse selection available anywhere, encompassing American muscle cars, classics, Corvettes, exotics, trucks, Hot Rods, customs and more, with live coverage of the event to be featured on MotorTrendTV and MotorTrend+.

A 1959 Porsche 718 RSK Center Seat, a 1936 Bugatti Type 57 and a 1965 Shelby 289 Cobra Roadster will headline The Rick Grant III Estate Collection, and the impressive group also includes a variety of other well-preserved classic sports cars from Alfa Romeo, Aston Martin, Austin-Healey, Bentley, BMW, Ferrari, Jaguar, Maserati, Mercedes-Benz, MG and others.

Last year’s Mecum Kissimmee auction achieved a record $217 million in sales to become the first-ever live collector car auction to exceed $200 million.

“When my dad (Dana Mecum) left the auction arena at the conclusion of Mecum Kissimmee in January, he said ‘4,000 next year,’ and he meant it,” vice president of consignments Frank Mecum said in a statement. “Despite the demanding auction schedule that remains for this year, our consignment agents have been hustling to achieve Dana’s goal. We have less than 60 days before Mecum Kissimmee 2023 opens.”
