In Paris, the show will celebrate its 50th anniversary while, on the other side of the Atlantic, the first American edition will be held in the heart of New York. It is in this context that Comexposium and R\u00e9tromobile are delighted to announce the signing of a multi-year partnership with Gooding Christie\u2019s auction house. This collaboration will offer collectors the most exceptional selection of vehicles ever presented at auction during the anniversary edition and future editions of the show, both in Paris and New York.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>After a record-breaking 2025 edition which attracted to Paris 146,000 visitors from all over the world, R\u00e9tromobile \u2013 in keeping with its mission to be a showcase for the classic car industry \u2013 has now chosen to cross the Atlantic. In 2026, this second edition of the iconic show, organized in partnership between Comexposium and duPont REGISTRY Group, will offer a unique event for enthusiasts and collectors across North America.<\/p>\n<p>In Paris and New York, the shows will put in the spotlight a wide variety of vintage and rare classic cars, the heritage of more than a century of automotive history. The event reflects not only the historical and cultural significance of these mechanical gems but also the richness of craftsmanship, innovation, and design. More than a car show, R\u00e9tromobile is a celebration of automotive beauty. Beginning in 2026, one of its key highlights will be top-tier auctions conducted under the hammer of Gooding Christie\u2019s.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1400\" height=\"933\" src=\"https:\/\/news.dupontregistry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/04.-Credit-Photo-Copyright-and-Courtesy-of-Gooding-Company-LLC-.jpg\" alt=\"A group of people stand and converse around classic cars at a Gooding &amp; Company exhibition booth during the R\u00e9tromobile auction in a convention center.\" class=\"wp-image-359712\" srcset=\"https:\/\/news.dupontregistry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/04.-Credit-Photo-Copyright-and-Courtesy-of-Gooding-Company-LLC-.jpg 1400w, https:\/\/news.dupontregistry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/04.-Credit-Photo-Copyright-and-Courtesy-of-Gooding-Company-LLC--800x533.jpg 800w, https:\/\/news.dupontregistry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/04.-Credit-Photo-Copyright-and-Courtesy-of-Gooding-Company-LLC--750x500.jpg 750w, https:\/\/news.dupontregistry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/04.-Credit-Photo-Copyright-and-Courtesy-of-Gooding-Company-LLC--1140x760.jpg 1140w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1400px) 100vw, 1400px\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Copyright and Courtesy of Gooding &amp; Company, LLC<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Since its establishment in 2003 by David Gooding and his wife Dawn Ahrens, Gooding &amp; Company has established itself as one of the world\u2019s leading auction houses in the collector car market.
