Default Are you going to renew your Sport Z Magazine subscription? Now called Nissan Sport

I just received my renewal notice for this Magazine. As a 350Z owner, I liked it better when it was Sport Z Magazine. Not really that impressed with it as Nissan Sport. Going to pass on the renewal. How does everyone else feel about this new Magazine?

Now that the magazine is covering all Nissan vehicles, I don't see them doing comparative testing such as a 350Z high-flow catalytic converter shoot out.

I hope that I am wrong.

seems like a nice magazine overall, but it was like $15 for 4 issues or something like that. And then if you stepped up to a 2 or 3 year subscription, you were only saving a couple dollars

yet, road and track offers a 3 year/24 issues for $14

I just can't say I think Nissan sport mag is worth it as much as I would have liked to buy a 2 or 3 year subscription

The first issue was OK. I really don't see why Nissan can't cover all of the cost of the mag...Lexus has one (different style) but it is free to the owners!

Too expensive and like davidv said, seems like they won't concentrate on the 350Z enough to justify me spending that much. So with that said, NO.

Default AGood Magazine

I write some of the European articles on the 350Z ( pg.24 , GT-S article , Issue 1 ) for this magazine and I have to say , it is one of the better ones in terms of staff and organization and one that has many high interest articles in the pipeline and these will include a good amount of coverage on the 350Z . You have to remember though , it is geared now to the overall Nissan community , performance and sport wise , and you will not only get the 350Z info you want , but how it all relates to the total Nissan experience .I am not a spokesman for the magazine so I can't help you as to the subscriptions , but I'm sure if you contact Lita in circulation she will help you to the best of her ability . I am a five year subscriber myself and she has been nothing but wonderful with subscription help . Finally , Nissan Sport is a big hit in Europe right now with many of the British 350Z people, with subscriptions increasing daily . Hope this helps .

I seriously doubt there will be any treehugger PC in Nissan Sport Mag.

From what I heard while at the SEMA convention, the modification and tech articles for the 350Z will be a lot more intense than what it was before.

Hello,

We're talking with them about some possible technical coverage of our cars in the magazine... I'd subscribe just to see that

+1 My Z club had a subscription thing with sport Z where all members got subscriptions. It was supposed to be taken care of with Nissan Sport but I haven't received an issue yet, and I'm an officer! I'm not sure how many of our members haven't gotten the issue but I'm going to find out at the meeting tomorrow.
