Sport Compact Car is what I subscribe to. They seem to always either have a DSM, a Supra, or an Evo in every issue.

I subscribe to "TURBO & High Proformance", "Sport Compact", "Motor Trend", "Road & Track". I do confess to buying "Super Street" about every month, and an ocassional "Import Tuner". "Turbo" is the best though. They get straight to the point and have tons of how-to's in every issue. Subscribe, you won't regret it.

I also agree that Sports Compact Car is prob the best, but Turbo is good as well. I hate Import Tuner and the other mags; half of it is filled up with rims and mufflers, and the other half is a bunch of ricey civics.

Re: best car mag?

hey i have found an awesome mag for everyone, it is very good for people who are new to cars its call TPR (Tuner Performance Reports) they have a lot of how to and it also has a lot of articles about how to choose the right clutch for you or spark wires, ect. i think they only have like 5 or 6 issues out now but they have recently switched to bi monthly. i really suggest picking one up if you can find it or go to their website. www.tprmag.com
