OMG BigV- I had EXACTLY the same 3 in mind- I was such a car Freak from the age of 12 to 22, I could tell you the stats about any production car from a Lada to a Countach, including the options available. I read those 3 mags from cover to cover, except for the rims ads...

And I also thought that the Countach was the coolest car of all time. The Anniversary Edition was a little tacky, but hey- I was in a dealer in Montreal who had six of them lined up in his basement, brand-new, only driven on and off the loader. The pictures of the Countach do NOT do it justice to standing beside it (Then on the other side of the garage were 6 Diablos- 'tis to dream....). I still think of that day (it was '95) like it happened yesterday! Each Countach and Diablo were an even $350,000 CDN. I also went through quite a phase of reading that mucho-expensive homes mag- I can't remember the title, but it was the one that had Kenny Rogers' estate for $9m in '96 or so- Maybe "DuPont Registry"?

Now I read those three a bit but I now read Guitar Player and Guitar World a lot.
