Pros: Entertaining, smart, and witty write ups about today's autos, focusing on cars with sporting pretenses. Cons: Not a buyer's resource for purchasing a mainstream auto; like most car mags, they're skewed toward exotic sportscars.
"They have a strong bias toward quick-handling cars that are better suited to sprited drives down a twisting backroad than every day commuting. In comparison tests, rest assured the vehicle with the best handling and liveliest engine will win. In fairness, how entertaining is it to read review after review about minivans, econoboxes, and Mom's SUV? It's a great medium to read a well written account of the driving experience in a Ferrari, Porsche, or Lamborgini. Since this is the closest most of us will ever get to being behind the wheel of one of those beauties, it makes for a great read. I also give them a thumbs up for keeping an eye on near-future developments like hybrids and diesels, and not going ga-ga over pie-in-the-sky long-range alt. fuel solutions."

Pros: Great coverage of cars; funny Cons: Advertiser friendly, so there are no negative reviews
"I like the way this magazine is written. If Automobile is the Architectural Digest of car magazines, then Car and Driver is the Maxim of Car Magazines. They clearly have a sense of humour (e.g., their breaking news is called the Information Dirt Road, since the internet is the information super highway). They also tend to cover a large variety of cars. Since C&D, R&T, MT, and Automobile all rely on automotive advertising, all of these magazines tend to publish reviews that are friendly toward manufacturers."

Car & Driver "The magazine",
May 30, 2007
By Tonka
"I like the way this magazine is. It is very informative. People who love cars (like me) will see that the description of the cars is good. And the best feature is the comparison of different cars, because there is all the information. I would recommend this magazine to others since it's cheaper also trough magazines.com"
