You can buy the mag on the Zinio app for the iPod or iPad. I just read the article. Not bad. It might be on US top gear in some other form. The magazine covered it for the Brits.

At $66 for the Zinio subscription, I might rather go to the book store and try an issue before paying that much for a year. My Motor Trend, Road and Track, Car and Driver, and Automobile yearly Zinio subscriptions don't cost more than $35.00 combined.

Hammond owns a 1968 GT390, not a Shelby GT500. It's a version of the Mustang we didn't get in the United States. Think of it as a factory Steve McQueen version back then.

Glad to hear the new BOSS is getting the respect it deserves.

My wife bought me a subscription to TG, so far it's been bi-monthly?
I think it cost $75+, if I remember right, for one year.

You can buy a single issue of this months Top Gear UK edition (July) that has the comparison article at this link:
http://www.newsstand.co.uk/
They will ship to the US... They had a few left but they could be gone by now.

Just checked and they show 4 left.

Wow my copy of the magazine arrived today. That's faster than USPS cross country. Anyone else get theirs already?
