    Best Automotive Blogs/Magazines

    I'm in the process of attaining a new job where I will be writer for different automotive related businesses and their blogs. So I'd like to see how some of the best do it and also keep up to date on things going on in the auto industry. I know of some good automotive magazines and blogs but I'd like to hear from you guys.

    What are some of the most comprehensive, up to date and most well written auto blogs or magazines?

    Also if anyone has some really good sources for info on the Subaru BRZ that would be helpful as well.

    Thanks!

    I enjoy Speedhunters and Stanceworks (you can't argue that the quality of their work is superb.)

    They may not be the same style of blog you are looking for, though.

      Yes I love both and their work and presentation are both great but I am looking for more 'mainstream' broader blogs. Maybe more along the lines of Car and Driver. Thanks though Lambo, the more range the better because I'm going to want to appeal to every type of driver I can.

        Depends if your looking for general information or niche.

        I like autoweek for general news, pretty comprehensive.

        For well written try an issue of Vintage Racecars, the guys write pretty exhaustive articles.

        For specific writer's look for anything by the late David E Davis ("Turn Your Hymnals to 2002" is a great place to start) or by Peter Egan (write's a monthly column for road&track).

              I'm a fan of Hooniverse and The Truth About Cars (home to the incomprable Murilee Martin).

                    The best automotive magazine by a very wide margin is evo (evo.co.uk)

                    The quality of the writing writing and photography are nonpareil.
