    OK..... Since the answer to everything is "Miata", when will we see a project based around a flat-4 , 4 wheel drive Miata?

    I propose a new monthly feature "Powered by Subaru".

    Interesting idea.

    I happen to know of one very odd soon to be Subaru powered project that would fit that scenario ;)

    Well this sucks. I saw many STi variations on foreign soil in my travels as a younger man, but Subaru only offered crappy GL wagons here. They waited until I was divorced and therefore penniless to release the STi in the states. That has been hard enough over the past few years, but now I have to see more of their awesomeness every month in GRM? NASA coverage wasn't enough torture for you?!?!? What's next, an acquisition of Hot Bisexual 20-Something Women that Would Sleep with You had You Not Remarried Journal? Jeez!

    Thanks Ryan! I was just curious.

    More Subarus in GRM? I could live with that. Even if they do sound funny

    Sound funny? They're the best-sounding front-mounted AWD flat-fours currently made in Japan!

    Welcome to the board, Ryan.

    Yes definitely a powered by Subie regular forum. I'm trying to work out the logistics of a Subie engine in a middie position of a Locost. There's a company in Oz that makes a blanking plate for the rear.

    Thier offices are within walking distance from where I work. I take it that they are going under....maybe I should walk over and tell them how cool it was to pay $20 for three Miata magazines.......Maybe GRM should do more coveage on Miatas like put them on the cover or on the front of the calendar.....;-)

    Or mabe they should only cover Miatas..

    So does this mean they'll finally bother with a second issue of Rotary Speed?

    I still don't understand how GRM bought SubieSport and the writers but they can still make Forever MX5 and Rotary Speed on their own??

    I am looking forward to increased flat-4 coverage though

    I wonder how many Subiesport subscribers also receive GRM?

    With two Subarus in my garage this pleases me. However, how did I miss out on Subiesport? Didn't know about the publication before now.

    I always saw them on the magazine rack at Borders. Maybe a regional thing?

    In reply to P71:

    Yup. We were simply overextended. GRM bought one of our titles, not the company.

    In reply to Appleseed:

    Subiesport had newsstand circ in US, Canada, Singapore and at the Hong Kong airport. Subscribers in 70 different countries. (though, a majority in the USA)

    Well... you can count me at 1 :)

    As much as I don't like to admit it, I kinda saw this coming to SubieSport as the magazines kept getting smaller and smaller, until finally the last issue I have is about 10 pages and a DVD.

    I've been a subscriber to GRM since only the last 4 issues this year, but what I've seen, I really like!

    Good luck to MediaSpigot! Your dedicated Subaru magazine will be missed!

    Here's another magazine Tim might want to buy for his empire. Looks like it is going up for sale.

    Dry roasted peanuts wicked hurt.

    Poor Subiesport. A bit of neat content, but not all that well excecuted. I subscribed the first year, but let the subscription lapse without remorse. Iffy writing, and the mag was certainly not aimed at people like myself who remember the cars before the WRX arrived. Nice to see GRM picking this up.
