They are all pretty rubbish imho!

GT Porsche probably the best though if only for Harris + that other autocar journo who's name I've just forgotten.

Chris now writes for a web magazine :

http://www.drivers-republic.com/

Seem to be 4 uk online car mags launched in as many months. I'm not feeling it though. Just don't like sitting in front of a PC reading long articles.

My favourite UK mag is still Evo.

I like Total 911. Just joined the drivers-republic web. They have pretty sweet video reviews.

I just picked up my first copy of Total 911 yesterday, and really enjoyed it! It was the first Porsche-dedicated magazine I've ever read, so it was tough to see through the eye candy at first...

No question that Evo is by far the best enthusiasts magazine of them all. At least in the English language...don't know there might be some other good ones out of France or Germany...but I do know Evo is translated into other languages. It is a brilliant mag...my personal fav.

Total 911 is good. Chris Harris just left GT Porsche so I think it's a big loss. I thought he rocked too.

I just went to his new site and read his take on the 997PDK....also saw a vid of his bitch viper green S/T. Can't believe he's selling it, but that's what he does...gets cool cars for a year writes about them...I'm sure gets some tax break and the off they go.

+1 on evo, I love it. I got a teaser subscription a year ago for $99 for the year. regular rate is something like 170. Since my favorite writer left, (Jethro Bovingdon), I probably will go back to scanning it at the bookstore while I wait for a movie to start.
