I still really like CAR, I can't figure out why everyone is turning against it. That said EVO is very good, no doubt about it. As for the American mags, I subscribe to Automobile, it's a good mix of what I like about Road and Track and Car and Driver without the stuff I don't like, plus Automobile has the best contributing writers, with regular articles from Jamie Kitman and Georg Kacher, and occasional submissions by PJ ORourke, plus an article this month writen by Jerry Seinfeld!

I have had a subscription to car and driver for quite some time now...

They do have a bunch of ads but I'm not complaining, it keeps the cost down for the subscriber.

I've had an Autocar subscription for the last 7 years...and my dad used to bring them home to me when I was about 3...it's my fave for sure. I like Car, Evo and Top Gear as well.

evo uk.. nobody can beat evo
Totally agree, EVO is the best, do you know another mag that made a 23 pages report with a 288 GTO, a F40, a F50 and an Enzo ? And that's not all, every month there are good features and reports that are not too short like in more and more mags.
I also like Autocar, Car and "Le Moniteur Automobile" (in french and Belgium).

evo. No doubt about it. I love everything in that magazine. Not just the supercars, but the other reviews, columns, fast fleet, buying guide etc. as well. The quality of the pictures is also unrivalled. Other magazines may write about interesting cars, but most of them also write about cars that are quite the opposite. I can't be bothered to read about MPVs and stuff like that.

EVO too. There was a time when CAR and EVO were the same (too me at least), but then simply CAR got worse and EVO got better. there is no other mag that can compete with EVO on pics, reports and stats (at the back, notice the Porsche domination). EVO 8)

evo without a doubt, they are just incredible...especially after having to contend with reading American crapazines for years. Of the American mags Road & Track is the best (I have a subscription), because they always seem to get their hands on the best cars before everyone else, but their articles are more like advertisements than real evaluations. They, along with most other American car mags seem 'afraid' to say anything at all in the negative about the cars they review, I mean you know its bad when they say the Pontiac Aztec's styling is 'unique'. That's why I like evo and the other Euro mags so much, because they aren't afraid of the big bad manufactures...and what everyone else has said about their photography, quality, etc...
