Got the new issue last night at Barnes and Noble. Awesome! The cover reads "Why you have to own one."
I am trying not to read the articles yet as I have a bunch of business travel starting tommorow and I wanted to read it on the plane. My wife was laughing at me, "you won't be able to wait..."

Still, I think this is great publicity for our favorite Porsche (at least it is my favorite Porsche). I think it is great when the cover of a major sports car magazine says folks have to own one.
Thank you 911 and Porsche World. Now how about changing the name to 911, 968 & Porsche World.

Some factual errors in the text, and no mention of 968.net seemed odd. I bought a copy two weeks ago in London, and it was fun reading while away. But saying the hood has hydraulic struts???

Did they say that? I remember the cover asked 'Can you afford not to own a 968?'
Hey, I'm always happy to read about the cars, I just was surprised at some of the errors. They've always liked the car at 911PorscheWorld, so it has gotten ink over the years.

OK - read it on the plane to Pittsburg. Good, happy, pro-968 articles. Some common-sense things to look for (including a 70k cam chain and tensioiner change suggestion!).
The weird thing - the interior photos are from a 944 series cabrio! Old style door panels, no clock, and no under armrest speaker panel (specifically mentioned in the article). Now maybe it is a UK spec thing, I don't know. But it does not seem right.
And for the record the US cover reads: Balance of power/Why you HAVE to own a 968!

Thats wild that they have different covers for US vs UK editions. The headline reads 156 mph, 12,000 pounds.
Ralph, I'm going to pm you my phone number, call over the weekend and we'll try and set up a meet next week in Hackensack.
