Automobile July-02 : good issue

[cojones]

Must-read issue. Articles include:
- Superpowers: a 5-car comparo that includes the Aston V12 Vanquish, Ferrari 575M, Lambo Murcielago, Porsche 911TT Tip, MBZ AMG SL55... feedback will surprise you
- another article on the coming Ferrari FX/F60
- an Audi RSR coupe -- shares structure and (detuned) engine with the coming baby Lambo (40V, 5.0L V10 with 500 hp and 369 ft-lb)
- VW Phaeton -- a big W12 powered 180 mph sedan
- a cool feature on wristwatches
- some (IMO out-of-place) SUV articles

What about the new Hyundai Tiburon article saying how it beat the mighty Z06 around the track consistently although it was a little behind the Boxster S. Hmph.

Sure... just like a Mazda MP3 does better in the skidpad/slalom than many $$$ sportscars.

In the Supercar comparo, the Benz SL55 AMG, whilst relatively slow(er) by some measures, was able to keep up in most respects. Its road course laptimes were on par with the Ferrari 575M.
