The other day while I was at the local Japanese bookstore I spotted a copy of the February, 2010 issue of Drift Tengoku magazine sitting on the shelf. I thought to myself, it's been a while since I've picked up a Doriten mag, and much to the dismay of the wife I added another magazine to the collection. After getting home and flipping through

Here's another bit of printed treasure that I picked up during my recent stay in Japan, and another magazine title that fits well with this month's theme - Style Wagon. Since I bought my own van earlier this spring, I've been keeping an extra close eye on this magazine along with some of the other wagon and van publications available in

Since it's luxury and exotic month (for another day or two at least), I thought it'd be a good time to take a look at one of the top magazines covering the VIP scene in Japan - VIP Style . Unlike here in the USA where the internet is where most automotive trends are born, print is still very influential Japan. After seeing so many US magazines

For Mazda Roadster enthusiasts in Japan (or J-style roadster fans from around the world), there's only magazine to know. Road&Ster . It's essentially the bible for those who live the "Roadster Life". If someone is fan of Japanese style Roadsters, chances are they have spent a lot of time hunting down R&S issues, and even more

In a lot of places the internet is taking over print magazines as the primary form of automotive media, but that's not the case in Japan. The car magazine is still king here and every month bookstore shelves fill with TONS of high quality automotive magazines about everything from Ferraris to Toyota Hi Ace vans. This month I will be looking some

Although there is no shortage of awesome car magazines to be found here in Japan, there are always times when I wish to read some good old fashioned car magazines written in English. A couple of weeks ago, I got a package in the mail from New Zealand which came courtesy of Brad Lord, the editor of NZ Performance Car Magazine. Inside the package I found

Even car enthusiasts who live outside of Japan are probably familiar with the automotive magazine "Best Car". Best Car is one of the primary sources of the "speculative renderings" of new models that pop up on car blogs all over the internet. Of course Best Car does a lot more than just speculate on future cars. The magazine has

As you have seen, we have been trying to showcase some of our favorite car magazines here on Speedhunters. Some you are probably familiar with and others you may not be. For this post I wanted to talk a little bit about a Japanese magazine that you probably won't be able to find outside of Japan. The name of the magazine is Auto Guide and it is

In addition to being known for its automobiles, Japan is also quite famous for its fashion scene. Places like Harajuku and Shibuya in Tokyo are known worldwide for their cutting edge fashion trends. When you put cars and fashion in Japan together, you get Motor Style, a new magazine from Neko Publishing. I picked up the first issue not too long ago

Magazines are REALLY heavy. When you are just holding one you don't really notice the weight, but 10 or 20 of them together make for some "serious mass". I learned this the hard way when trying to fill a suitcase with car magazines bought at a secondhand book store in Japan. Of these magazines, my personal favorite was a magazine called
