The summary (http://www.topgear.com/content/misc/magazine/thisMonth/) page doesn't mention it as being reviewed this month BUT there is this curious image (and correct me if I'm wrong but only one of those cars looks gorgeous and it isn't the Crossfire!):

The Crossfire from that angle is awful, makes the other 3 cars look good.

Weird they sohw that pic but dont mention it. When is the mag for sale?

The frustarting thing is that all those other cars have either no rear seats (Crossfire, 350) or pathetic rear seats (TT), and speced up are all as much as 8k more expensive...

The other 3 could almost be the same car....
Certainly the design similarities are evident from this angle !

Man , I love the fact the RX8 dares to be different all the way down the line. Zoom Zoom indeed....

According to someone in the office the new Top Gear Magazine is out on the 6th August.

OMG worst pic ever of the back of the 350z.

What a complete mess, makes the TT look great.

And the crossfire? lol what a waste of space.

I've never been keen on the TT's styling but there? it looks by far the 2nd best out of the 4.

One of my colleagues subscribes and received his copy on Wednesday. Had a quick skim, but didn't really read it as I was planning to pick one up at the station on the way home today.

There's the 4 car comparison ( which picked the 350Z as the "best", followed by the RX-8 I think ) and also a one page test drive report on the UK spec which looks the same as the Road Test on-line dated 1st August.
