Chevrolets showed up in full force at the 2025 Palm Beach Auction, securing top sales slots with iconic models like Corvettes and Camaros, as well as rugged off-road Blazers. A standout moment was the charitable sale of Jerome Bettis’ 2025 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 convertible VIN 001 that raised $200,000 for The Jerome Bettis Bus Stops Here Foundation, which offers various educational, recreational, development and financial assistance programs for youth. Another exciting moment came when a 2009 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 crossed the block with 100% of its $110,000 hammer price benefiting Hannah’s Home of South Florida, which helps homeless, pregnant women overcome adversity, find hope and live victoriously.
