Engine Masters and auto action. I also buy Street Machine without fail BUT only to keep my collection up to date, It's too full of add's theses days for things that have nothing to do with cars. But I do enjoy "stage write" and "dirty stuff".

I buy all of the regular ute magazines. I also buy Street Fords and Street Machine.
I also buy BMX PLUS magazine, BMXPRESS and Rebel Yell BMX magazine. I used to buy some of the European porn mags but now I don't have to because I get them given to me, lol.

Oh, you mean car mags. Dont really have a favourite, just buy one if it has something interesting in it. Same goes for Ralph, Zoo, Mens Health or any other mens mag.

Cheri used to be a great mag in the 90's but over the last few years it hasn't been as good.

Aussie muscle car for sure, i have all issues all kept pristine. its good to read a magazine that you actually learn somthing from and always without any brand bias at all. i also buy street machine but mostly from habit as it seems to be losing its way lately.

Australian Musclecar, by a mile... finally a no BS 99% acurate mag that caters for the motorracing and factory musclecar scene properly.
For modern performance then Motor.
The rest.. well..

Haha, :


St Machine from my corner, but too many trailer queens with huge money thrown @ them, imho, now days. I'd get few of the Ford mags, but magazine collecting can get expensive :

Most Performance car mags these days are becoming more and more chocked full of advertisements and usually accompanied by boring fluffy owner written articles... the stories (and mags) lack substance (or accuracy) and some decent detailed tech info..
AMC seems to have gone against this trend, which is refreshing, although it doesn't cater for the ricer or street machine crowd.

I agree that AMC is one of the better magazines, but then they do 20 pages on a Holden Overlander. Since when were they ever a muscle car?
