Print media where I would get financial advice (rank ordered):

(1) Wall Street Journal
(2) Barron's
(3) Forbes Magazine
(4) Fortune Magazine
(5) Business Week
(6) New York Times financial section
(7) Consumer Reports Magazine
(8) Car and Driver
(9) Motor Trend
(10) Road and Track
but NEVER............... "Smart Money"

Really, I only read two of the above sources regularly, The New York Times and Consumer Reports.

They are all great cars but these guys are nuts. The TT is a fine car but it will not hold up to a S2000 or the G35Cpe. First off they are comparing apples to oranges. The S2000 isn

I wouldn't use a magazing called Smart Money to make my car buying choices any more than I would use Car & Driver to make my retirement planning decisions.
