    I would be interested in knowing which and how many car enthusiast magazines you subscribe to or purchase on a monthly basis? Which do you like the best and why? If you could only subscribe to one, which one would it be.

    I’ll start by posting this. I currently receive three different monthly mustang publications. They are Mustang Times (MCA publication), Mustang Monthly and Mustang Enthusiast. When I was a member of Good Guys, I used to receive their monthly magazine. Based on a recommendation from a friend, I just started with Old Car Weekly.
    The problem with the monthly mustang magazines is they are all three trying to be all things to all people. I appreciate the new mustangs, but I would like to find a publication that is devoted to first generation mustangs.

    I only get Auto Restorer now. I like it because it doesn’t have any ads, just stories, how to do articles, and a Q&A section. I exchange magazines with a friend who gets several hot rod magazines and his are 80% advertising.

    I recieve Olds Cars Weekly – very good articles and information,
    Hemmings Motor News – very good and has improved alot recently,
    Hemmings Classic Car – interesting articles,
    Hemmings Muscle Machines – interesting articles,
    Collector Car – good magazine with many articles,
    Muscle Car Enthusiast – good magazine.

    If I had to choose one it would be Old Cars Weekly. They recently hired a new editor so we will see if their level stays the same.

    It seems to me that a magazine devoted to a more specific topic (such as 1st generation mustangs) could make a considerable profit and become popular because they are filling that particular niche – which is what you’re really interested in. The problem is that the magazine company doesn’t want to risk loosing their “newer autos” support base
