Default Best auto magazine??

Its my friends bday today and I am looking to get him a year subscription for a magazine. He drives a 01 SS so I am looking for a magazine that covers lsx's pretty well. I would prefer it to be on newer model cars and not alot of old school camaros...I was thinking GM Tech but I just wanted to make sure that would be the best. Thanks guys!

get one of those little postcards that are always inside the magazine. They usually have some good deals on them.

I also enjoy Hot Rod magazine, has a lot of good info in there, even if it isn't LSx specific.

Yeah, for LSX info, GMHTP. I was just flipping through one today at Barnes & Noble, IIRC it's 19.95 for a year subscription. WAY better for the 5.99 cover price. Damn, if I pay 5.99 for amagazine, it better have some naked chicks in it!!

Hot Rod is good too though, they have a LSX story once in a while, and there's also a little bit of everything in there.

By far GM High Tech... I work for Advance Auto and I just take an issue before they throw them away after the new month comes out. I have a book shelf full of them.

GMHTP- Check their site. I think they offer the same deal as the postcards in the book or better. Plus they use alot of members on here!

I subscribe to GMHTP, Hot Rod, Car Craft, and Diesel Power. Those four cover all the auto related areas of interest for me.

High Performance Pontiac does at least one LSX article usually, but GMHTP takes the cake hands down.
