Favorite Car Magazine
 
There are so many car mags out there now, it's tough to choose.

I like HCI- Hot Compact and Imports, it's a clean mag.

SCC can be ok, but it's been getting lame lately.

Modified Mag is cool for high dollar ----.

I can't even think of all the other ones or whether or not I liked them...

What do you guys read?

Euro mags:

ZOOM
Mini World
Banzai

A little pricy ($7 plus) but good mags, nonetheless.

Turbo Mag. Since from back in the early '90's when all they featured was Grand Nationals, Cyclones, and Typhoons.

SCC is cool also. They feature great write-ups in the "DIY" section.

I like Turbo Magazine
I like Honda Tuning, but i am biased 'cause i know Bob Hernandez
HCI is a little to show scene for me.

I read every magazine there is every month. I should subscribe to them.

TPR is a great one too, hard to find, but very technical and I like that

I like Car craft. They do dis imports a lot but the entire magazine is about do it yourself type of stuff.

Honda Tuning and HCI are about the best mags out there in my eyes . Honda Tuning cuz they were and are running the article on the boosted crx.

Damn, you guys are hardcore. I haven't read a magazine since....before computers lol. It's been a while. I don't even remember what magazines I used to buy. I just cleaned out the garage and found an ass load of them, but they were introduced to the trash can.

I used to get a bunch but i usually grab SCC, Honda Tuning, Turbo, Import Tuner, and super street. I have gone without them for awhile so i just subscribed to Super Street and Import Tuner. I like seeing what other people are doing and sometimes the articles are useful.

I also get a kick out of the Euro mags,

Max Power
Redline
Evo

They have some wicked cars with totally different styles, and they naked chicks too, perfect combo. Spendy though...

Honda tuning is my favourite. SCC seems to have ditched hondas and is heading towards nissans and dodge (srt4).

Then there's honda tuning with their "budget boost" crx. this thing aint BUDGET anymore. Hondata w/ fjo rebuilt motor water injection (non of which is homemade). Went from budget boost to empty your bank account boost in 1 issue. Other then that.. they have like 3 different project CRX's, a project civic wagon, project AWD ITR.

I think all magazines are ----.... except Cosmo!

I used to subscribe to Grassroots for the longest, but I dunno... I never read any of it anyway.

When I picked up an issue from Honda Tuning I started reading articles I thought I had read before...In SCC !!! WTF?? Then...

lol, every kind, you should open a shot call every kind of CAI.

I know they certainly got old looking at intake installs all day, but the new HCI had a turbo install on an 03 civic Si. That's not an easy install with the motor in. They actually had to take the turbo apart and put it in one piece at a time because the clearances are too tight, that's a bitch.

I know there's a lot of worthless ----, but mags are nice to have when you don't have a computer with you.

I mostly read Turbo, theres always interesting articles, and good write ups in there. Sometimes I read Honda Tuning, sometimes... I just can't believe i bought a Super Street mag once :-[
