R&T, Motor Trend, Automobile (gonna let it expire..the current editor has let is slide), Muscle Mustangs & Fast Fords. That in order to learn more about my current car.

RWebb 01-26-2012 09:49 PM

how about Fat Fords? all about the 500

I also subscribe to HOT ROD...The most recent issue was an in depth article on the highest horsepower production V-8.

Classic and Sportscar. British mag. Pricey. Awesome articles. This was the first car magazine that caught my eye when I was little. My dad had a copy that I found, and I read that same copy for months.

I have given up complaining to Classic & Sportscar about errors in their articles, as it gets tiresome writing in every month. Never had to complain to Motorsport.

If I were still into "projects" my goal would be to have a car so cool that Muscle Mustangs and Fast Fords would want to do a feature on it without a bikini model. ;)

Yes. This magazine created a real lust problem. I loved looking at all the car for sale ads.

Why the heck have magazines gotten so freaken expensive?? Most car mags now are $7.00 ( especially considering most are 75% ads)

Head416 01-27-2012 01:37 PM

But how many of them offer annual subscriptions for $25?

Most of the UK ones are expensive, but they also feature higher quality photography and writing, as well as a larger format and more pages. I think it's worth it. The Evo iPad app is only $5 per issue though.

There are columns about watches and other items of interest to gear-heads along with articles about people in the car world...race drivers, tuners collectors, restorers, etc.

Yes. Octane is the only one I don't like to miss. They've raised the bar IMO.
