Bring a Trailer has launched new premium listings and “Plus” and “White Glove” listing services. The new tier levels for sellers retain the original “Classic” listing for $99 while a “Plus” listing will set sellers back $349. With “Plus” sellers get a visit from a professional photographer who will shoot the listing photos, giving the listing an edge over the iPhone photos they would have used.

If you are listing a rare ride you can opt for the new “White Glove” listing service, which is described as a concierge experience. The service is tailored to the seller’s needs and can include photography, copywriting, and additional marketing to buyers outside of the Bring a Trailer audience. With this service, the seller also has a direct line to a member of the Bring a Trailer team, something that has never been offered to sellers before.

With the new premium options, listings will be on the site for up to 21-days, instead of the standard 7-day auction listings. To celebrate the launch of its new premium services, Bring a Trailer is auctioning a 1956 Mercedes Benz 300 SL Gullwing at no reserve you can learn more at bringatrailer.com/premium (the high bid at the time of this story was 1 million dollars)

At first glance, Kate Cook’s artwork might seem like a paradox—a seamless blend of classic oil painting techniques with the high-octane world of automotive enamels. Her signature approach, which she calls "Artemotiv," merges the meticulous craftsmanship of fine art with the raw energy of hot rods and muscle cars. But spend a few minutes with Cook, and the paradox resolves itself into something more profound: an artist who has not only found her lane but paved it herself.
