I'm in. Works great for me since we're considering either a Spec V or a 240 as a third car. Good luck, guys!

I really hope it gets off the ground. I paid for a 3yr subscription (Sport Z) and have received only one issue (Spring 06).

From what I have read, the material that was to be used in the summer issue (Sport Z) will be used for the premier issue of the new mag.

Basically that is correct but the staff has got more time to even put together a better issue.

Guys, DaveO that posts on my350z often is now the publisher of Nissan Sport magazine. He is the guy that wrote the plenum shootout for example. He is a great guy and I can say he has become a good friend of mine as we have worked jointly on several articles. Most of all, he is a man that does the right thing be it writing an article or in this case, being the Publisher of the magazine. I expect the magazine to have great technical articles and I have complete faith that those that loved Sport Z magazine will find Nissan Sport even better.

I just received a postcard from Nissan Sport explaining the carry over of the subscription. I thought it was a nice touch and look forward to the new magazine.

You should offer a "Back Issue Package" of all of the issues at one price. (Including the sold out ones as a re-print)
They are, if you go to the new website, there is an option to purchase all available back issues of Sport Z for something like $80.

Default Sport Z

...haven't been here in a while, things have changed a bit. I joined a few years ago under IsatteliteI but have since forgotten the password, new email acct., you know how it is.

I must say that although I'm looking forward to the new magazine, I will miss Sport Z. I think the only ones I don't have are the first two issues, and although they were lacking in a lot of areas I really enjoyed the magazine and always looked forward to new ones. To me it had that local newspaper feel, it was an enthusiasts magazine, made by enthusiasts for enthusiasts, not an ad magazine with a few articles as most car magazines are these days.

I also received the card informing me of the change, I thought that was very professional and courteous on the part of both magazines (not sure who actually sent them out)

To Nissan Sport, good luck, I'm sure I'll enjoy your magazine.

Question: For those of us who chose not to get a subscription...What kind of circulation will the new Nissan Sport Magazine have?

i.e. available in most book, grocery, convienience stores.....or just certain places?
