i want to get a gift subscription for somebody, help me out.

car and driver
road and track
motor trend

which one would YOU want?

StreetTrucks and MaxPower UK

IMO Motor Trend sucks. Either of the other two are good for road tests of new vehicles. Road & Track devotes a pretty good amount of space to racing while Car&Driver covers very little racing.

My vote would be for Car and Driver

Grassroots Motorsports is a title I highly enjoy. Of your list, I have to lean towards Road and Track just for Peter Egan's column.

Grassroots is top dog for car magazines!
I like Automobile, and Road and Track also.

European Car is another one I like, although, I havn't read one in a long time.

I forgot about Automobile. I picked up a copy several months ago and was very impressed.

From that list, I'd pick Car & Driver, but if they are into track days, autocrossing, or other forms of Grassroots fun, then the natural pick would be GRM.

I have subscriptions to:
Motor Trend
Car and Driver
Automobile
Autoweek
I Cancelled Road & Track because it devotes too much to auto racing(hence the Track in the title).
But off that list you posted I would recommend :

1)Car and Driver-Good articles and up to date information
2)Automobile-I highly recommend
3)Motor Trend

I'd have to 2nd 3rd & 4th that. Peter Egan is without a doubt the best automtive journalist I've ever read.

BTW he also writes for Cycle World (sister mag to R&T)

i forgot about automobile

I agree. Peter Egan's Side Glances column in R&T is woth getting the whole magazine by itself. Plus I think that they have the best photography/art of the three biggies.

Most North American car magazines are crap(there are some exceptions of course), containing more ads than articles and printed on low quality paper. My favorite magazine without a doubt is the British magazine called CAR. Very high quality, great aticles, glossy paper and awesome pictures.
