AutoWeek and Automobile should be on your list - AutoWeek is the only US weekly automotive mag and Automobile has come back towards what David E. Davis originally intended it to be. (Also see David E.'s online buff book, Winding Road, great writing in this e-zine.)

I've been getting Road & Track for 30 plus years and still enjoy it, but it's an old guy magazine anymore.

I gotta put in a plug for Hot Rod too, it may be a different genre but it's a pretty well written mag (and it's cheap! ; -).

Bimmer and BMW Performance are amongst my top magazines and mostly where I've found articles concerning the 1 series, but 0-60 has also been a great magazine and I LOVE (note the bold letters) their articles and photos and the quality of the paper used in magazine just seems really good. Sometimes I read Automobile, but the first two mentioned are where I've found the most articles concerning the 1 series and hence my interest in them. As for Roundel, I haven't found it at any book stores in my area, but I always see a fresh copy at my BMW dealership.

Of the big magazines, MotorTrend is my favorite.

You didn't ask, but the SCCA magazine SportsCar is my least favorite.
