Enthusiast Car & Auction Watch

Why this is recommended

An order book that opens for a week, a market index that says sell the 911 this spring, a Radwood or Monterey Car Week ticket window, or a collector insurance rule change are each worth a year of membership, and often much more.

What the Tab covers

Who it is for

The people who read the car news before the real news, from a Miata owner to a collector with a barn.

When it runs

Auctions close on weekends and manufacturers reveal at European and Japanese hours; a Friday brief sets the weekend

Scope

Porsche, BMW M, Mercedes-AMG, Corvette, Ford Performance, Toyota GR, Honda and Acura Type S, Subaru, Hyundai N, Mazda, Nissan Z and GT-R, Lotus, McLaren, Ferrari and Lamborghini reveals, allocations and order books; Bring a Trailer, Cars and Bids, Mecum, Barrett-Jackson, RM Sotheby's and Gooding results and indexes; Hagerty price guide and market data; Hagerty, Grundy and American Modern insurance rules; state collector plate and registration rules; Monterey Car Week, Radwood, Goodwood, Amelia and concours tickets; track day and experience deals; recalls on enthusiast models

Suggested task

The objective your Tab starts with. You can edit every line of it once the Tab is yours.

New enthusiast model reveals, allocation and order book openings, limited run sellouts, auction records and market index moves at the big online and live auctions, price guide changes at Hagerty, collector car insurance and registration rule changes, enthusiast event and car show ticket windows, track day and driving experience deals and recalls on enthusiast models, with the model or auction first.

Track enthusiast and collector cars for US owners. Report only confirmed, source-backed items from the last 7 days: model reveals, pricing, allocation, order book openings and limited run sellouts at Porsche, BMW M, Mercedes-AMG, Corvette, Ford Performance, Toyota GR, Honda and Acura Type S, Subaru, Hyundai N, Mazda, Nissan, Lotus, McLaren, Ferrari and Lamborghini; auction records, notable results and market index moves of 5 percent or more from Bring a Trailer, Cars and Bids, Mecum, Barrett-Jackson, RM Sotheby's, Gooding and Hagerty; Hagerty price guide and market rating changes; collector car insurance, agreed value and state collector plate and registration rule changes; ticket windows for Monterey Car Week, Radwood, Goodwood, Amelia and major concours; track day and driving experience deals of 25 percent or more; and NHTSA recalls on enthusiast models. Prefer manufacturer announcements, auction house results, Hagerty, insurer pages, event pages and established automotive reporting; ignore dealer markup listings and rumors. Put the model, auction or event first in the title with the number or date. Use high severity for an order book opening within 7 days, a market index move of 10 percent, or a recall with a stop-drive warning. Return no more than 6 findings. Push each as a finding with a title, a two-sentence summary, sections for what happened, who it affects, what to do, the deadline, and the source link. If nothing qualifies, push nothing and submit the run receipt.
