Market commentary
Offered at McCormick's Palm Springs auction in 2012, then at Mecum Monterey also in 2012 where it no-saled at $65,000 and $75,000 respectively, it was then sold at Bonhams Boca Raton auction in February 2013 for $96,800, gradually tracing the XKE's upward sloping price curve to this point. Bought at a decided discount to most of the XKEs currently in the market, the difference is more than accounted for by the condition.
