“Having a residence in the Sarasota area and involved with groups like the Café Racers and the Oaks Car Club, I have seen the quality of collector cars that reside in Sarasota,” noted Carlisle Events co-owner Bill Miller. “Now Sarasota will be a destination for a world class collector car auction powered by Carlisle Auctions. Carlisle Auctions is teaming up with the Sunset Automotive Group to bring the best of the best collector cars to Florida’s west coast for this inaugural event,” continued Miller. “So many people watch auctions on TV and comment on how fun and entertaining that looks.
