Post Pure Porsche Magazine

I have heard that there is a good Porsche magazine called "Pure Porsche". Has anyone got any details for subscription?

Thanks <img src="graemlins/offtopic.gif" border="0" alt="[offtopic]" />

Sure and here goes:
subscribe either via :
telephone: +44 (0) 1732 748084
or Fax: +44 (0) 1732 748001

their address is:
GT Purely Porsche subsciptions, Unity media, Becket House, Vestry Road, Sevenoaks, KentTN14 5EJ

I have all issues and I really like it alot. Still think, thought, that 911 & Porsche World is still king

I think your subsciprtion rate for a full year would be around 79 Pounds.

Wolf,

I picked up a copy of GT: Purely Porsche the other day at our local newstand, and was impressed. Overall, I do agree that 911 & Porsche World is probably better, but I like Purely Porsche and may subscribe to it as well even though it's a bit pricey for US delivery.

Get ready for the flames..

I prefer GT Purely Porsche. Its a bit more aspirational, seems to have more articles on the extremely desirable machines (RSRs, etc etc) and , most importantly, virtually no column inches wasted on article like, how to fix your 924 wishbones for £20 etc.

I don't bother with 911 & Porsche World 'cos there isn't enough 911 stuff in it for me.

But, thats just my opinion.

GT Purely Porsche is almost a coffee table magazine. They have nice pix, but the content is very thin in each article. Almost every issue is filled with 'tuner' cars, all wings and spoilers and graphics. I've bought every issue so far, but I think that'll end soon. I'd hoped it would get better after a few issues, but no great leaps yet. And, it's the most expensive Porsche mag out there by far.

Two of the earlier issues of GT Purely Porsche had TERRIFIC photos (and basic articles) on the 993TT -- one article featured the 993TT and the other featured the entire line of Turbos to the present.
