Yes the free iPAD app for Christophorus is awesome, if not a little bit of a Porsche commercial, it still is fun to read and view in the interactive foramt.

I like Christophorus . It is free with my porsche membership. August-September issue has several pages dedicated to the new boxster.

One Brit mag I find very interesting is 911 & Porsche World. Pricey but lots of good stuff and you get insight from the continent that you normally don't get here. GT Porsche, also from the Brits, is good too. I do not subscribe but find them in the rack at Barnes & Noble from time to time. You can check them out and see if they have articles of interest for you before you purchase.

PANO is good from PCA along with the membership. Excellence is one I would not be without so now you have some choices.

Thanks, Mcomet for the heads up on the IPAD app. It's great.

I am starting to feel that way also. Just got the November issue today, which made me realize I missed another issue last time. Over the last year I have not received 4 issues. Excellence doesn't respond to E-mails so I have to call again to get the old issue I missed. this will probably be my last subscription.

Thanks for the advice.
I ordered the free issue of Excellence to see if I like it.
Probably gonna get the subscription for $25.00.
Seems like they were around $9.00 per issue at the book store. Yikes.

Why would "missing 4 issues this year" make you "start to feel that Excellence is boring and redundant?" Wouldn't the absence of a third of the issues actually alleviate some of the boredom and redundancy?

I find our client care meetings at work boring and redundant (and I own the company!), and I SURE AS HELL wouldn't be complaining if they shaved them down by one-third.
