Best one out there, in my opinion. Particularly like the Tech Nerd section.

I used to get Corvette Magazine for years but stopped about 5 years ago.
I get Vette magazine, it has more technical articles.
Vette Vues is another good Corvette magazine and has been around since 1972.

I probably should have been more clear in my original post. Which one of those magazines are best for putting ads? We sell seat covers and want to explore the option of putting ads in printed material.

Thanks

I have subscribed to Corvette Magazine from the beginning - IMO it is the best Vette specific magazine out there.

Meh..... iot is okay. I have had three issues and it is ...ok.

For advertising it would probably be ok. You may want to consider doing a mix of print, some digital (like CF) and be all over the socials.

Looking in my latest issue of CORVETTE mag, I see for advertising you should call Kyle at (415) 382-2870 or email to kyle@rossperiodicals.com. I would think he should be able to supply you with circulation numbers, rates, etc.

Prior to purchasing my C-5, in 2001, my wife owned a '79 C-3, through 1997, after purchasing it brand new. We got married in 1990, and I became the "chief mechanic" for that car, and subscribed to 'Corvette Fever' magazine, as I liked their tech articles. I was both surprised and disappointed, when they closed up shop. Currently, I subscribe to 'Vette' magazine, and occasionally pick up a copy of 'Corvette Magazine' at the local supermarket's book section.

Corvette Fever was always my favorite as well.

Vette Vues has a lot of advertisers dealing mostly with restorations and add on parts. I think it might be exactly what you're looking for.
