View Full Version : RX8 is a 10-best Winner!
Got word a few weeks ago I'd won 10-best Beautiful Readers' Rides photo contest with Car and Driver. Some time later I got word they'd pulled the page to sell to advertising.
As a consolation, they sent me a copy of how the page would have looked in January's Edition, and a C&D T-Shirt.

Agree the Pontiac pic is weak.
