The Barrett-Jackson Experience Arrives for Pebble Beach Concours and Woodward Dream Cruise

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz.--Aug. 17, 2006--The third issue of The Barrett-Jackson Experience hit newsstands on Aug. 15, 2006, nationwide, including expanded distribution in major retail stores. The highly anticipated third issue from the Barrett-Jackson Auction Co. will debut for the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance and the Woodward Dream Cruise, cataloging each car that crossed the block at the 35th anniversary auction in Scottsdale last January.

Available on newsstands and at barrett-jackson.com, the Primedia publication is an in-depth 146-page look into all aspects surrounding the collector car world. It is designed to be a primary source for information on industry trends, the best collectors items, the hottest cars, the top events and the lifestyle surrounding car collecting. Tips for sellers and coverage of the collector car news are also included in the magazine.

"We're releasing this issue of the magazine right before these two high-profile events because it has become an important guide for collectors at every spectrum of the hobby," said Craig Jackson, president of the Barrett-Jackson Collector Car Auction. "It was appropriate to provide guidance and the latest trends during a period when so many cars exchange hands privately. Our goal was to create a magazine that would engage car enthusiasts and avid car collectors when they needed insider information the most."

The magazine covers the exclusive Barrett-Jackson 35th anniversary event, featuring the most notable automobiles that crossed the auction block. Topics also examined are undervalued muscle cars, hot concept cars, clones, street rods and the delivery of the first 2007 Shelby GT500.

The magazine will also give readers tips on how to be a savvy seller, including a behind-the-scenes look at the elements that make up a Barrett-Jackson event. Highlighting the issue are photos and stats for each of the 1,105 vehicles sold at Scottsdale this year.
