That is a great cover LS -
thanks.
Say - wasn't it R&T that had a picture from the
80's in their PS section showing a fellow lighting a cigarette on a snowy road
with the nose of his 512bb poking out of the woods where it obviously went off
the road -
"Bob muses that the tires were good tires but not
great tires"
Something like that?

Gents, this is the one:
I also have a special breakout book from RT that dedicates one entire
issue to that top speed test.
So...I'm wondering...where is the video for all of these historic tests?
I know all of the magazines record them...the editing and production jobs will
cost a fortune.

Alex - Which cover are you thinking about? Can you
describe it?
Does anyone know where there are archives of such cover
photos?
Have you tried usedcarmagazine.com?
I've bought some magazines from
them and they have cover photos too, albeit small.
It's interesting how
some of those really stick in your head. I was looking at a 993 911
Turbo recently. It was the color I always wanted - Arena Red, mostly
because of an Automobile Magazine cover from 1994 that had the car on
the front with a splashy headline that read "Sell your soul - Buy this
car!" I had that cover on my wall for a long time. I couldn't find it
with a web search but would love to see it again.
What are some
other covers that made impressions on people? I remember a Car and
Driver that had a 348 parked nose to nose with a GMC Typhoon that made
a lasting impression. What else?
I heard the article might
have made an even more lasting impression.....surprised our 348 haters
didn't reveal the ass kicking the Typhoon delivered in this test.
;)
Other covers that were memorable, mostly all comparos:
- '87 R&T Top Speed shootout - LS knows the
issue...959, 288 GTO, Countach, TR on a banked track
- '97 Motor Trend Ferrari special issue - 288, F40, F50,
and 355 at Texas Speedway
- '90 C&D - Comparo with NSX, 348, Esprit Turbo, 911
C2, ZR1
And probably the best one, which is one of the few mags
I'll never sell:
'87 CAR - F40,959, Super Countach, 288 GTO vs. Aston
Lagonda - "There will never be another month like this again" was the
subheading.
:)
