Actually no.

I find the journalistic style and content of Motor Trend to be at least 25 years too out-of-date for me (and I'm in my 30's!). Also, as Pobst (and his colleagues) demonstrate over and over, having some professional driving skills does not mean you understand the first thing about making a clear and compelling rhetorical argument.

If you want to read well written, thoughtfully researched, relatively unbiased auto journalism, you need to look to the British magazines (specifically EVO and TopGear IMO).

Interestingly, I find the same to be true when it comes to professional/semi-professional photography magazines.
