Default Blitz IS in Turbo Magazine Issue

Sorry if this is a repost, but I was browsing the internet and found this:
http://www.turbomagazine.com/feature...o_lexus_is350/

Has anybody picked up this issue yet?

That opinion of yours is subjective my friend.

Has anyone actually found this at the newstand? I have looked at Borders, and just went to Barnes & Noble during lunch, but nothing. Where can I get this article?!

turbo isn't exactly the most popular magazine in the world, you can probably find it at a gas station, but not a redneck one. also check the grocery store

Turbo has become less popular over the years.

It's getting harder to find. Borders doesn't carry it.

Besides, I went last night looking for it. Already too late, they bumped it to July issue.

No, It is still prototype phase. It is unknown at this point if it will be for sale.

When it does, I'll be knocking on Blitz NA's door.
