Generally speaking, I think most automotive magazines suck. This one was actually pretty good. Let me break it down for y’all.
Brand new shocking Lincoln on the cover? Check.
Feature on one of the best cars ever made? Check.
Head to head comparison between two American muscle sedans? Check.
Break down of all available muscle sedans? Check.
Full review of wacky performance crossovers? Check.
Huge feature on the Lincoln continental? Check.
C63 AMG review? Check.
Articles about super cars? I count 4.
Finally a review of the new xc90? Yup.
Articles about super utility vehicles? Mhm.
Long term verdict on the Tesla model s? Finally!
Believe it or not, there is even more interesting content (golf sportswagen and new Ford Explorer review)
Hands down the best issue I’ve ever read. Thoughts?

Us Lincoln dealers got a copy of the cover and the article on the Continental for free, that was kind of cool.

Motortrend in general is the best auto magazine going right now. They are in my top 3 for YouTube channels as well, and number one when it comes to providing consistent quality content.
Haven't read C/D in a few years but I remember losing interest back around the time Csere took over. Didn't like the direction the magazine took after that. RT is the better magazine these days.

I went from “so what” to “..yeah he’s absolutely right”.

I subscribe to C&D for Erza Dyer and John Phillips.

John Philips is the only reason why I even bother with Car and Driver these days. He’s certainly a progenitor, if not the progenitor of most of the quirky automotive writers out there today.
Otherwise, the magazine is feeling rather stale these days. The same goes for Automobile. Actually, I’d rank that magazine below Car and Driver .
Motor Trend and Road and Track are probably the better two American automotive magazines out there. But they both have faults.
Motor Trend trends a bit too yellow for my tastes, and its website is a visual nightmare that feels like its stuck between Web 1.0 and 2.0. It does produce some of the best automotive content on YouTube, however. Road and Track has the better magazine and website, but its YouTube content is utterly forgettable.
If you combined the two... Hmmmm... That could get interesting.

MT’s videos have gotten very good in recent years.

I miss Sport Compact Car. Oh well, I still have MotoIQ.com, but Coleman doesn’t post nearly enough.
