Default Sexy new Panorama magazine.

If you're not subscribed to dear, old Pano, well, now's the time to join -- get with the program -- she's been to the plastic surgeon, and she's rocking a hot, new body.

I've been disinterested in "car mags" as the Web took over. But Pano answers the question of why to even have a print media car magazine when everyone wants news hot off the digital press in seconds: quality of content. Research, insightful journalism and depth. I'd even go so far as to say artful. Cover to cover, from 356 to RS 4.0 (literally, this issue) and the written word from people worth reading and material that's simply not on the Web. If the mission for Pano is to inspire new generations of enthusiasts while keeping the sport alive and interesting for those of us already driving a Porsche, I think they're on the right track. Excellent.

They even talk about Chevy and their gimmicky marketing with the new c7

Stout is exactly the shot in the arm Pano needed
Kudos to him and to the people/person who recognized his talent and did something about it

I always enjoy "european windows" with Cotton. My bathroom is littered with Panorama mags

Thanks, boys and girls—and Adam.

Seriously, this may be the hardest-core forum I know—never shy to call something out and filled with serious drivers and enthusiasts—so these comments mean a tremendous amount to me.

Still waiting to see if "Mooty" really exists, however. So far, not buying it. A brilliant move on your collective's part, tho'...
