The internet is killing car magazines. Look at great sites like this one. Why buy a car magazine when you can get the same info and pictures online? You can talk to other owners who can share their real world experiences working on their cars. You get answers to your questions the same day or week you ask them instead of a month or longer. You can get unbiased brand comparisons. It's the end of an era.

That said, I subscribe to all the Hemmings car magazines and they are excellent.

I agree. The magazine publishers are trying to make money off the internet by giving away content for free and charging advertisers for our eyeballs. But, to cut costs for their print publications, they are re-gurgitating content from one magazine into several magazines. Hemmings is bucking that trend and has several of the most well written and original publications out there. I subscribe to three, along with HotRod and Sports Car Market. By diluting content, other publishers are driving readers and, consequently, ad dollars away.
