Over several years, I've subscribed to numerous Sports Car/Porsche magazines but have settled into Porsche and 911 (Brit mag) as having as much 968/928 info as any. I like the way they write and they freqently have articles that appeal to me. I let my sub to Excellence go and jusy buy an occasional copy off the stand when it has something of interest to me. Works out cheaper for me that way. Same with the other mags. If there's consistency in good stuff, then I subscribe.
What others seem to have enough non-911 info to merit a subscription? Hope I'm not missing something important.

'88S4 928, Polar Silver, 41K miles (Daily Driver)
'85S 928, 32V, 5 spd (SOLD to an enthusiast. I miss this great car)
'02 Audi TT, Turbo, 6 spd (SOLD. Porsche is better in about every way)

I don't think there is a good answer to the question. Both Excellence and 911 and Porsche World cover the 968 fairly well - considering the relative scarcity of the model. The Brits are clearly supporters of the model (
968 - Why you have to own one was my favorite cover article).
I think we just have to be happy whenever we get a mention and enjoy reading about 911s, Boxsters, 944s, and the rest of our cousins.
On the same topic - is anyone else tired of reading about Australian Porsches? Seems like every issue of Excellence or 911 and Porsche World has at least one featured. As much as I like sharks, dingos, and Fosters lager, enough is enough!

Excellence and Panorama (PCA Magazine) are my staples. It's funny though, more often than not, those two carry the same articles, since whatever the big story is that month, reporters from both rags are there.
