I don't know about all of you, but I have a serious addiction....CAR MAGAZINES! Seriously....I just dropped $60 on all the magazines on all the shelves of all three major bookstores in town.....Had to have the MODIFIED with the RBM EVO on the cover....Had to have the MODIFIED special edition.....Had to have the D-Sport I've been drooling over....Had to have the C16 I've been raving about.....Had to have the last two and next Import Tuner....Had to have B-Scene.....Had to have about 10 others I've been reading for a month now but grew scared they'd disappear at the first of next month.....I am sick. Can't help it. My next big payday I'm going to break down and sign up for all those subscriptions on all those subscriptions cards I've got filed away in my file cabinet, and, luckily, I get to write it off as a business expense.....

Smart move...

Magazines are kind of a rip at newsstand prices. Too many ads, not enough substance.

Jeez, 60 bucks? ;) As for mag subscriptions, try using Amazon. Sometimes they'll have cheaper rates...

One mag that I would highly suggest subscribing to is AutoWeek. You get a new issue every week and it still costs the same as most subscriptions ($20). Tons of good, general info on every car from econo-boxes to exotics...

I wish I found SCC before September 03 then I would have every issue ever. I’m thinking my next book purchs will be the SCC book they published (Sport Compact: Engine & Driveline Handbook) with there articles and stuff compiled into a book. Great stuff like the whole suck squish bang blow article among other things

Search the net before signing up to any subs you may find cheaper sources.
