New issue of Siphon Magazine on newstands

[newedgeperf]

The second issue of Primedia's Siphon magazine is on sale now. For those not familiar with this title, Siphon is all about the B-segment or Micro-compact cars like the Yaris. If you get it, check out the Tein Time Attack Yaris...it kicks, well, you know.

I hope this helps.

[ChinoCharles]

What Bill said.

I got mine at Borders. If anyone is too lazy to go looking and wants one shipped to their doorstep, you have until about noon tomorrow to PM me. I'm goin on a Siphon run!

[eTiMaGo]

[newedgeperf]

I found it at the local convenience store...and I live far from the major cities!

i think i'm going to look for this.

[LoudYar]

If I get the chance, I'll have to take a look around for this. Hopefully I'll be successful, because it looks like a good mag, and worth a read and look.

Damn time zones!!

Ill look when i hit the store in a bit.

[uncleyaris]

[Chris07LB]

No luck here, ill have to get chino to send me one. He already owes me a brick oven pizza.... MMmmmmmmm...

[Kaotic Lazagna]

nope, looked at Barnes and Noble, they don't even carry Siphon. and i checked back at Borders, and they still have only the premier issue.

[ChinoCharles]

Chris, they didn't have them yet when I went, but I will grab you one when I do finally see them up there. I'll check back Monday or Tuesday.

Anyone else?

[eTiMaGo]

well I called the bookstore where I got the first issue and asked them to keep one under the counter and give me a call when/if they get it again :biggrin: Can't wait to read that track test.

Meanwhile I will go back to my new magazine "French Cars" from the UK. Not to sound overly patriotic or whatever, but when it comes to small zippy hatchbacks, we've got the goods, plenty of inspiration to be had! :biggrin:

[Black Yaris]

I will go on a magazine run tomorrow, maybe in the big tuner city of Toledo, Ohio will have a Siphon Mag?

[ChinoCharles]

BTW Chris, just had a brick oven barbeque chicken and cilantro pizza.

MMMmMmMmMMmmmmMmmm...

[Black Yaris]

just had a brick oven barbeque chicken and cilantro pizza.

MMMmMmMmMMmmmmMmmm...

you suck Chino I had to settle for a regular oven with mushroom, black olive, banana peppers and feta cheese.... but it was damn good:thumbup:

[Chris07LB]

fuck that, I had sushi for dinner. :biggrin:

[ChinoCharles]

Sushi... my fav.

Will trade brick oven pizzas for sushi.

[Chris07LB]

Gotta be hand made, for hand made though... no surprises either. :barf:

[ChinoCharles]

White sauce you say?

:evil:

Of course its hand made dude, don't sell me short! Chicks dig a guy that can cook. You takin' notes?

[Black Yaris]

where did the white sauce come from?

[Chris07LB]

Must be the kinda pizza he's use to up in Ohio. :iono:

[Black Yaris]

I live in Ohio as well.... I hope he is not making his own "white sauce" same kind you made after reading my shifter thread Chris

[Chris07LB]

The actors made it, I just cant believe she took it all. :eek:

Chino's a different kind of "Ohio" then you.

[Black Yaris]

small rich town vs. big mid class city.... oh I get it

[ChinoCharles]

:bellyroll:

[Chris07LB]

Not what I ment, but go on with your pitty party.

[SailDesign]

Got one yesterday at Barnes & Noble. Nice mag!

[acrbill]

I found it at Barnes and Noble.

[sboy]

sigh.....i wanna have that magazine.

but the question is, where can i find it here in saudi arabia?

[acrbill]

The Yaris got major props in its battle with its competitors. There is a very nice spread of the Tein Yaris. Definitely worth picking up!

[jamal1984]

hey no luck for me today at Borders, B and N, wal mart, but i found it at Kroger. Belive it, at Kroger. Give it a try guys

[jamal1984]

The Versa in there look very similar to Toyota Yaris that Etimago got. Very intersting magazine.

[Razr]

Do none of you people have a scanner? :P

I'm sure a few "fair use" scans to promote the mag here wouldn't get anyone in trouble :wink:

[Chris07LB]

:wub: :wub: :wub:

[esquiva]

the Tein Yaris sounds so damn loud and vicious! ...heard it just a week ago.....NICE!!!:bow:

[R0ME0]

Hey guys! I just picked up my copy last night! I found a local news stand that has about maybe 10-12 copies left. If you want a copy pm me and I can send one off to you if you guys want! BTW I'm just lovin the mag!

[rwseattle]

In seattle. Location?

[R0ME0]

Crossroads. At the Daily Planet News stand

[rwseattle]

Thanks.

[Doc Zaius]

Any Canadians out there? I picked it up today at the Chapters downtown... 2 left.

[churp]

Any subscription info in it? Primedia website doesn't say anything about it.

[Black Yaris]

I wanta copy... none found in Toledo :~(

[Chris07LB]

<<---------- still wants one. :frown:

[Razr]

How about a few more random fair use scans (i.e. pages with Yarii :wink:) to whet our collective appetites into searching harder to find this mag? :biggrin:

[Chris07LB]

How about scanning the whole article??

[R0ME0]

No subscription in it guys. Sorry. Hopefully this thing will go into full fledge action soon!

Primedia is just getting this magazine off the ground. This is only the second issue. If it sells well enough on newstands, they may consider selling subscriptions. Show your support for a B-segment magazine by buying a copy and telling other B-segment enthusiasts about it!

The article goes to show how a well tuned Yaris can kick ass. Everytime the b-segment and the microcompact class in general gets a mention, it's always Honda Fit this and Honda Fit that. The ugly Versa gets more press than my beloved Yaris even.

If you don't have a chance to read the article, the Yaris posted the fastest times around the Streets of Willow. The Spoon Fit was a no show due to mechanical problems but Sport Compact Car did run that car on this very same track but the Tein Yaris was still a second and some change faster.

Siphon Magazine lap times:
Scion Evolution Xa: 1:36.71
Turn3 Versa: 1:36.49
Spoon Fit: 1:34.03
Tein Yaris: 1:32.83

To be fair the Fit ran on a different day with different conditions. The article also makes mention that one corner was configured a little differently to the Fit's times aren't exactly comparable. That being said, the Yaris was originally set up to run with a supercharger but was taken off for this shootout. A rematch was mentioned but I think the Yaris will still come out on top.

[jamal1984]

hey anyone know about that Custom KNN air Intake they put in the Yaris? i really want that short ram intake right there, look bad ass.

[R0ME0]

Looks similar to ChinoCharle's intake but with a K&N head. I'd just do it like that!

[redyaris]

I want this mag. I looked at my neighborhood Publix, Kroger, CVS, & Walgreens. I still have to check B & N, Borders, and I might get lucky at Joe Muggs.

[churp]

I found it at Walmart....

[Chris07LB]

Charles, grab me a copy plz.

[ChinoCharles]

Charles, grab me a copy plz.

I saw a whole bunch at Advance Auto Parts yesterday. I'll get one in the mail for you today.

[Chris07LB]

Thanks Homie.

[spkrman]

i want a subscription....

i dont want to pay newsstand price.

[Unknown_Epiphany]

Just ordered both copies, both issues cost me ($18: I really hate shipping) alot of money. No stores around here carry them though.

[graywolf_14]

I think I remember seeing it at barnse and noble I will have to run there on my day off. I have always been into small cars so it sounds like a great mag. Oh do they have a site were u can read the article?

[Terrorize]

For the Canadians out there...if you didn't see it at chapters it's also available at Shoppers Drug Mart this month...i got mine!! Wasn't even really looking for it...just saw and had to have it...heh heh missing the first issue though.

[Yaris Revenge]

The Wal-Mart near my workplace has 5 copies of #2 left. I bought the 6th one. :wink:
Anyone need me to pick one up for them, $5+shipping?

[kurokoma-kun]

[redyaris]

Confirmed: Barnes and Noble has many copies in Atlanta.
