I gave up on all the corvette rags since they all seemed to combined into something that had Mopar to Mustangs and a smattering of corvette articles in it so I suspended that one. "Vette" was a good magazine but for the money, I lost interest in it. That leaves only one that I think is new on the market it's called "Magazine CORVETTE" and it's really well made but only comes out every 60 days. But if they need sixties to produce a quality magazine, I'm sticking with it. It is priced competitive and I believe is worth the money.

I really like Corvette Magazine and have recently subscribed to Vette - the jury is still out on that one as I have only read one edition of it so far.

I have a question, do these mags still discuss a lot of C5 stuff or is it mostly C6?

I use to go to Barnes and Nobles and buy like 4 different Vette magz. They make great reading material for when youre on the throne. I wanted a little more C5 info and write ups but it seems like mostly the oldest of the old or newest of the new get write ups. I dont care how to adjust the timing on a '63 split window even tho its my favorite year. Lol. Some magazines are just big commercials for certain brands but if you love Vettes youll read it!

I still get one (and I do remember which one it really is as they are so similar...I used to like Corvette Enthusiast...but it no longer is on the market...

However I still have a huge collection of the ones I used to get and I do still go grab one out of the garage every now and then...

I own a C2 along with 3 C3's and a C4 and C5... So I appreciate (and read) the articles on ALL the generations ....It was much easier when there were only C1 C2 and C3 on the road to find an article that helped you "mess" with your the car... Today with 6 generations on the market each generation is kind of restricted in what coverage any one magazine can offer...
