European Car

If you are looking for a magazine that will review the latest Peugot and tell you trunk space, the number of cup holders, and whether or not it has power windows, this is NOT the magazine for you.

If you are looking for a magazine that gives you a feeling for a customized Euro creation, keeps you updated on their magazine project cars, and is abundant with racing news, I'm sure you'll find what you're looking for. If you're a numbers person, however, you should know that it typically will not give acceleration, quarter mile, or skidpade numbers.
I gave it 4 stars because it accomplishes being what it tries to be as well as, or better than almost every other car magazine out there, and definitely every other import tuner magazine. It's an excellent balance of aftermarket accessories, racing news, new car reviews, and just talkin' cars.


Good articles, sometimes a bit cheesy.   October 27, 2001

I've been a "European Car" subscriber for years. I've owned a series of VWs and Audis, and European Car usually has interesting articles about cars by both makes.

Many of their articles are well-done, and provide interesting coverage about some pretty wild modifications to everyday european cars.

However, some of their articles can get really "over-the-top". Some of the cars that they review have been so overly modified that they're really kind of ridiculous; things that I would never consider doing to my own vehicle.

Regardless, it's a good magazine for owners and enthuisiasts of VW, Audi, BMW, Porsche and Volvo cars.
