Thats weird Josh, on their website they mention it.

http://www.delorean-owners.org/dw/index.html

Maybe its coming out in the next issue. To bad people have to wait 
4 months for the next one. For the price of that magazine, you 
would think they would publish more often. Who wants to pay that 
price to receive 4 "magazines" that is a bunch of ad's anyways? 

I'll stop this email before I go off in a rant.........
