The Magazine for the Serious Car Person
Road and Track is different than most car enthusiast magazines. Not only does it spend time on the cars of today, it also has articles on vintage models and racecars. I have found that Road and Track goes much more in depth than others, rewarding the reader. However, if you do not like performance cars look for something else
I have come to read maybe a couple articles
not nearly as appealing as the other magazines I have read: motortrend, car and driver, automobile mag, sport compact. I don't like any of the long racing articles and anything on old cars. Car and drivers off topic articles tend to be more interesting and occasionally very funny.
Maybe I'll like it more when I'm older
I'm under 30 and don't remember all the old cars that some of the journalists have such fond memories of. Also, this is a very serious magazine. I can see how the articles and their serious, "just the facts" style can appeal to some people, but I like the lighthearted and funny style of C&D. R&T sometimes seems very dry to me. MT tries to be funny, but it never works. MT writers remind me of people with really bad senses of humor that think they are funny. They wind up just being annoying. I would place this magazine as a middle of the road magazine. Sportscar international and C&D are #1, R&T is in the middle, Automobile slightly lower and MT is the bottom of the barrel
