I'm a bit curious as to how long the AMC magazine will last. Going by the 'factory musclecar' thread in the classic area, there are only so many Aussie muscle cars.
there can only be so many race cars as well...

What happens when we have all the info on every production musclecar, every race car, and all their drivers have been interviewed?

favorite mag would probably have to be extreme street, full of high powered nice looking cars. also features one custom chopper per issue. probably a good thing it only comes out every second month.

I used to buy another one but I begrudge paying an extra $2 to get a second mag included that I already bought about 3 issues earlier!

Good point, but id say there's a few more years life left in it in its current format without getting boring or repeditive... By then it will have morphed into another poster mag full of stereo ads and 26" bling like the others..

use to by street fords religiously. but have since stopped.

magazine seems to have kind of lost its way with all the new staff changing over, and im sick of getting (and paying for) back issues which i already have.

Extreme is the car mag I really like,tuff as nails cars,no show ponies without the go to match the show.
AMC is not too bad when they showcase a car I am interested in..

I read gay magazines so I can see Ford's politically correct, community targeted advertising...LOL

Autralian Muscle car
Muscle car enthusiast - Yank Mag.
Auto Italia - sometimes.


AMC have stated they will do stories on the Group C, and Group a Japanese cars, Moffats RX-7, the Turbo Bleubeirds, Skylines.
As these cars have history in Aus racing.

I enjoyed the Overlander story.
Something different.
