    Apparently Richard didn't like the Forza comparison of a 348 with a 355 and wrote an interesting mail to the editor. They published it along with another couple of unhappy letters.

    Congrats Richard.

    I used to love FORZA when they had Winston Goodfellow do car tests etc. But nowadays half the magazine are ads and the rest stuff that's already history like F1 races from 2 months ago. Rarely a good story anymore. Too bad.

    Just got mine today. They had sent an e-mail and said it would be in there. Hope it's not too overboard.

    I agree with you. Winston Goodfellow always wrote interesting and inciteful articles on older models. The magazine has changed!

    Nah, we know about the sensitivities of 348 owners. :)

    I'm keeping my subscription simply because I wouldn't know with what to replace it when it comes to Ferraris. Cavallino to me is a total bore and there isn't much else focusing on Ferrari. I always thought Rosso was top notch, but haven't received one in ages. My new favourite magazine now is "Vintage Motorsports", I must be getting old. :)

    hello,

    i still look forward to my FORZA magazine. but yes, it has changed. i think their mistake was going from six issues per year to eight. yes, they can sell more advertising this way, but seriously, there isn't enough ferrari news to fill a magazine every six weeks. hell, i kinda liked when they were every three months. at least you knew you had something speciale :) to look forward to.

    just my $0.02

    Just got my issue yesterday. Nice letter, right and to the point. I enjoy Forza but the coverage is really dated, which is to be expected. Loved the article on the FXX btw.

    Just started getting Forza, and just in time as there is a large article on V6 and V8 Fcars.

    Good points were brought up between the 348 and 355.

    I disagree. If they'd be doing some research, there is tons of Ferrari news within 6 weeks. But they don't go into any details. Just what's going on in F1 would fill an entire Ferrari mag.
