Delays getting Excellence Mag???
I have a great kid, he wants to get me a subscription to Excellence magazine for X-mas. I don't usually subscribe to any mags because too often they arrive a month after the newstand or they never arrive at all.
So - any problems getting your copy here in Canada?
Any experiences feedback appreciated

I got a subscription for Christmas last year. Since it's published in the USA, it takes 3-4 weeks for it to get delivered to Canadian residential addresses. I'm not sure how that compares to the newstand.
No problems with missing issues. I'm not renewing the subscription as I'll just buy it at the bookstore if there's an article that interests me. And there's a preview on their web-site every month.

FYI, almost our entire PCA - CWR region has some issues with "late" delivery of some months.
Our executive have raised the issue with PCA head office, etc., and it seems that this is a function of the mail rates... it's not being sent out as first class mail. This results in them being delivered when there's room after the priority items have been done.
That being said, I've never really had an issue with getting it when I do... even if it's a couple of weeks after the release. There's never really a "must see right now" article in it, and it's a nice surprise when it shows up.
Mind you, I've also got subs to 911 Porsche, GT Purely Porsche, RaceCar Engineering, etc., so I've always got something to read and don't "jones" for Pano.

I have every issue since number 16 ( except the ones I left on planes .. doh !!! ) I have never had a problem with delivery or renewal. I have subscribed for years. I don't know if they are late, as when they show up , I read them .. I don't compare to what is on the stands. Great resource for projects too.
