Paul;

The only hard copy mag I subscribe to is Autoweek, now renamed to //AW
should be now called Auto-Bi Monthly.  it's decent for my purposes.. and the
editorials can be compelling -sometimes.
Classifieds can be  "interesting" and provides pull.

Used to buy  subscribe to EC mag {when I was in airports] and stuff, but
they migrated to car mods more for 'look' and not performance..  (biggest
wheel/tires, led light bling  )

not to bash EC too hard, Ya changed my perception with that link to Bob's RS
Cosworth!  they used to have more mod stories but somewhere along the way I
lost interest. maybe it's what Mike said " It blows me away that the editors
can't come up with better and more interesting stories?. "
Feel same way, more FUN needed, even if a bit outrageous.

me now ?  it's all online.. such as Winding Road because I migrate around a
lot and can exchange reviews with others etc.
Want to read more 'our level' car guy stories, driving adventures, not only
Infineon raceway or Road Atlanta..

more advanced notice of cars event coming  ..

Something like that.. curious to see why you've inquired?

PK-
?
Its prolly been 3 yrs since I got a car mag the old skewl way.
?
If anything I'll buy maybe 4 or 5 mags a year from B&N?or Borders if they've
got cool enough articles.
?
Seems as if they're over-playing the GTR vs. World scenario though. I mean
how many times can you review that car ...and Lambo's too?.
?
It blows me away that the editors can't come up with better and more
interesting stories?. They all stick to this formulaic layout year in year
out. ?
