I subscribe to three car magazines. Road and Track, Car and Driver, since the 50's. Automobile replaced Road and Track as I my favorite from the first issue. It has the most color photographs and the best writing of the three.
The best (almost) - but definately the best read June 1, 2007

Automobile magazine emerged from the creative mind of David E. Davis, Jr. who founded it in 1986 after leaving Car & Driver abruptly. Their moto: "No Boring Cars." This moto has largely succeeded. Davis left several years ago - he's in his 70's so he's entitled to slow down - and left the editorship to Ms. Jean Lindamood Jennings, also formerly of Car & Driver. Personally, I think she is brilliant, but Davis and the suits didn't agree. She assumed the position of "President," while Brit Gavin Conway joined as the new editor in chief. Jennings colum returned to it's traditional place on the back page. She is charming, sharp-witted, and just a share irreverant. Like I said, brilliant. Other notables include the incomparable Jamie Kitman and the newly discovered Ezra Dyer. Both write with a candor unmatched by any other automobile publication.
The downside: the magazine is a bit thin. They charge as much or more than other magazines for a subscription, but include less "stuff" each month. Their tech stats also pale in comparison to others. But if numbers are your thing, read Road & Track or Car & Driver. However, if you read to read, you'll love Automobile. Personally, I just subscribe to them all.
Best car magazine. August 26, 2010

After subscribing to other car magazines I have found to be this one the best. I still receive motor trend and even though is good, it gets kind of boring at times (car and driver is almost the same). After reading Automobile at Borders I felt in love with it. The content is very refreshing, the articles are well put together, and they have sections (like the one where they analyze a new car styling) that I really enjoy and make it feel authentic. Every month, out of three car magazines i receive, this is the first one I read.
Automobile's long term tests are also the best since they actually update them online at least every week and discuss a lot of little details that only an owner will notice. Highly recommend it for anyone looking into buying a new car.

I have subscribed to most of the automobile magazines and find Automobile to be the best. Some of its competitors are very overpriced but with Automobile you get a great magazine for a good price. I enjoy reading this magazine and the articles seem better than its competitors.

I've read them all. Automobile is the best US car magazine. If you want even better ones, EVO and CAR are superior, but your going to have to pay to have them imported from the Brits.
