Reader's, Do you subscribe...

I was thinking about subscribing to a Corvette magazine and wondered how many C4 owners do, which ones or some other car magazines and why they chose them? Are there any that seem to have more C4 articles in them? Would you subscribe to one that was just about C4's?

The C4 articles were written and read years ago. They have moved on to what the current readers are looking for: articles on the C7 and C8 and a few on C6s and C5s. From what I've seen the most popular articles are on how to add multiple turbos to get outrageous horsepower. If you're not interested in that then there is no point in subscribing...

The very best magazine on the market today is Hemmings Classic Car. I've read them all and this is the only one I renew my subscription to without even thinking about it.

I subscribe to both Magazine CORVETTE and Vette plus a few other assorted car (Automobile, Car & Driver, Hot Rod) and gun (Rifleman, Guns & Ammo) related mags. Like to keep abreast of the latest news on varied subjects. True that the C4 Corvette information, projects and articles are far and few between but gives me something to read in my spare time at home and I always grab a mag before taking the wife to one of her (or my) doctor, dentist etc. visits because a lot of those places usually only have Home & Garden and Good Housekeeping mags to read.

online articles and video content is far better than any paper publication anyhow.

If you look hard enough and wait you can get Vette for $15.00 for 12 issues other wise Barnes and Noble once a month. There is more good information here than anything in print though.

Check out Corvette Magazine. It's written by adults, for adults, and is truly a superior publication. Nearly every issue contains a feature from each generation. I've tried them all, and CM is the only one I'll bother with anymore. Highly recommended!

Live well,
