Hemmings Sports & Exotic Car is the one I miss the most. If you never saw it, the content was mostly European sports cars. You can still view most of the past issues on the Hemmings website though.

Not Hemmings Motor News and other Hemmings publications, they are still very much around last I checked. Hemmings Sports & Exotic Car was killed off a few years ago due to low readership/subscribers. They tried to fulfill the rest of my subscription with another Hemmings Magazine that was all American cars from the 1930's to early 1950's and I asked for my money back instead, which they did.

Mine too! I was so sad when they halted production in 2017. Hemmings Classic Car is supposed to have some of the Sports and Exotic content now but it's not the same.
