Congratulations Marshall... Definitely well deserved. Where can I buy a Siphon magazine. I just went to Borders last night and they don't carry it.

to quote Carter Jung - Editor of Siphon (and who also happens to be editor for import tuner)

"As for the ending? Management has decided that this is the end of Siphon as a (semi) regular title. A moment of silence, please. But this ending has a new beginning. Most of the Siphon staff is on Import Tuner so you can bet that micro-related reading is going to pop up in a monthly title."

.....

"For the rest of you, i had a blast working on this title and the B-spec scene. With an ever-increasing demand for fuel, micros are going to be an indelible part of the U.S. market. Fuel-efficient tuning is only going to grow and it's cool to say that we were at the forefront of it."

taken from page 8 of issue #6 in the IGNITIoN colum (editors remarks on the issue)

when i said last, i ment last, not latest ...

but this thread is not about that .. it is about someone getting lucky enough to get their car in print... again congrats! .. its a nice looking ride.

sad man... i know that there were trying to get the mag to 2 times a year but i guess that didnt happen.. Carter was having ahard time finding other cars besides Scions to feature.. but i guess the mag didnt fly off selfs.. I need to get a few copies of this issue.. I knwo that Hawaii still has mattys cover issue still onthe racks and it was hard as hell to find in Hawaii..

Kind of sux..... to see this mag go..

Im glad to have been part of it.

Maybe you might be seeing my ride in import tunner.

Congrats for getting your xB in the magazine!!
From the 2 issues I was able to find - Siphon is/was a great magazine. I think one of their problems was that no one could find it to be able to buy it. I guess they knew it might not make it and that is why they didn't offer a subscription for the mag.
