    I'm trying to find all the back issues for this magazine, I've looked on ebay and cl, but I figure you guys might have some back issues you'd be willing to part with, or not.

    I hate that it got FOX'd, but I guess that is the end with most magazines.

    I've got a bunch from 6-8 years ago but I can't bring myself to part with them.

    I kick myself when I think of how many I got rid of.

    I wish I kept my stuff from the mid-90's. It basically documented the rise of the whole Honda phenomenon. That was some exciting stuff at the time.

    Anyway, ebay is the best bet. I check there every once in awhile. Got an SCC from '95 not long ago.

    There's a specific Super Street that I've been looking for for a couple of years--I might never find it.

    Yeah, me too. I can't bare to part with mine. I've read the 2003 issue with tons of Silvia/240sx info so much it's worn out.

    yeah I got them in the mail for 3-4 years. ended right when they stopped making them.

    ended up finding a bundle of 15 older issues on ebay a couple of years ago, one of my best purchases

    I started subscribing in 1999, I have them stored in the basement, but would be happy to let them go. I have about five years worth. I will look tonight and figure out what I have.

    I bound each year together with duct tape. ;) best bathroom reading material ever! :P I think I have 5-6 years worth. I cannot and will not part with them! :)

    I have every issue since 1996 and I cannot part with them either. LOL.

    I lost most of mine when I moved a few years ago. The last couple of years they limped along was not worth collecting.

    I will check when I am out at my buddies place this weekend but I think they were all tossed or burned after trying to garage sale them a few times, I had several crates full of them too. The information would be nice on a DVD in PDF format but the cubic space to store them is ridiculous, my GRM collection is bad enough as it is.

    you should have been there at my eviction last month, could've had most of the last decade, somebody got 'em before I could get back from storage - ouch! damned economy, now I'm only on the job section of craigslist between pavement pounding.

    Sorry, I spoke to soon. I forgot that when I moved and downsized about five years ago that I looked at fleabay and realized selling them wasn't going to happen, so I put them out for the recycler. I kept the ones with good Miata content, good FD3 content, and interesting Dave Coleman articles such as the Dave Point. Thats to say I don't have but a handful left.

    I kept up with the Honda developments thru that magazine since most of the stuff seemed to show up in ITA CRX's of the day.

    I've said it before, Dave Coleman's "Medulla Bad Idea" is the single funniest automotive thing I ever read.
