I don’t have an article about it but Turbo Mag subscriptions are being changed to Modified Mag subcriptions and Sport Compact Car is done.

Nobody buys magazines anymore, especially not the younger generations. All of their info is old news compared to the internet where aticles and pictures are practically instant. The times are a changing. ---

actually I’m subscribed to eurotuner :ninja , car and driver, and road and track as far as car magazines go. highschool made us either donate $250 or do $300 in magazine subscriptions. ---

Turbo was a great magazine while it lasted. Too bad it’s time is up. The only magazine I buy regularly is Honda Tuning. ---
