Apparently Hemmings is going to join the collector car auction game. Nothing I can find on their website, but it will be interesting to see how different it is from Bat.

The comments section will be interesting - BaT is pretty open, but Hemmings moderates the hell out of their comments. Good luck posting a negative comment on their “ find of the day” articles.

I’m interested, because I expect they’ll at least have more classic cars than BaT. But I’m * very* skeptical about how they allow vetting of listings. BaT is far from perfect, but the comments section is pretty damn good imho.

I was wondering if some one else would try this. I've learned alot just from the comments on bat. Especially on the stuff I have no intention of owning. So I see your point. 

Interesting

Most of my time on BaT is reading the comments on cars that interest me. It’s not as good as a model specific forum, but it’s great for general learning.

It will be interesting to see how Hemmings does it - I’m sure they will do it a little differently from BaT.
