Default First two editions of 000 magazine..sensational

Pete Stout who was editor of Panorama and previously commercial magazines is much missed by me from Panorama.
His new venture is a quarterly "magazine" , incredibly high quality, 240 pages or so with only a modest amount of advertising . Production quality is superlative and the articles are long and in depth coverage of specific important Porsches and Porsche history....... It is subscription only...

I habe received the prototype ad first edition of the quarterly..and of you want so read some really in depth and interesting stuff about Porsches of all ages then I would recommend it. Clearly They have deep access to Porsche and have excellent writers. Not cheap, but truly excellent:

First Two covers:

Great print contents & look, but pricey. Tempting though to read the 918/987 Spyder article.

^ I hear ya, as I too had to get my head around the price point for a "magazine" while doing the business model for 000. One advisor encouraged me to look it another way: What's a single 911—or 944—tire cost? Or two tickets to a concert? Or a nice dinner out? Or a trip to Rennsport Reunion, if you've got the time to take the trip? How many hours of enjoyment will I get from each of these, and do I get to keep anything? FWIW, we haven't had a single subscriber come back with a complaint about value, but many have sent a note to say 000 seems like a bargain.

Many thanks for the shout out, Ronan! Biggest thing right now is getting the word out, so your post is much appreciated.

I do sadly think that Panorama has gone down since Pete left. I still get Total 911 magazine more for the odd bit of info on new models, and the rest of the information I get is from the web or a few personal contacts.

OOO is definitely a library addition and I could not imagine throwing one out. I have a fair sized Porsche library but this publication is chock full of things I did not know. As it happens I had written an article on the Typ 64 when Pete was at Panorama, and had access to the car for a full day in Hamburg. Believe me, the article in 000 is hugely better than anything I could possibly have managed.
