Default Looking For Magazine Covers

I have some big poster prints of my car on the wall of my garage, but I'd love to get a couple poster prints of covers from magazines featuring the S2000 on the cover. I know there were at least a small handful back in 1999.

I'm not wanting to buy old copies of these mags just to scan the covers. I know alot of you guys collect copies of the magazine reviews and wonder if any of you have high resolution scans you could share of the mag covers?

It would be really cool to save the time and $$ trying to track these old issues down. I figured if I started this in a thread, there might be more owners who'd like copies too. As I find any (assuming I can), I'll post links to them here.

Stock? Aftermarket? There are some great hi res shots of different S2000s on Google if you do a filtered search. Do they have to be magazine covers?

Yeah, I've got plenty of photos. I'm looking specifically for the one or two issues of Motortrend or Road and Track that had S2000s on the cover. I'm not so much looking for interior magazine shots. Just the covers.

A scan of a magazine cover isn't going to blow up to poster size well at all. Not to mention a scan of the cover is going to show the rosetta pattern something awful that big.

I'm not looking for a work of art here. I've had plenty of experience removing moire from offset prints that have been scanned. I'm using Shortrunposters.com for the printing. So I'm looking at literally a $2 print here. Framed and matted artwork is not what I'm looking for. This is gonna hang in the garage. I just need a scan that is higher than the 72dpi garbage that you typically find in Google image searches.
