Anybody read this magazine?
I find it quite interesting but today I was reading it and I found an awful mistake.
The big topic of this month's is car technology and predictions for the future.
They have a timeline and it says variable valve timing debuted in 1995. I was like :wtf:.

As far as mass production goes didn't the Integra Xsi get it in 88 or 89?
I know some other company dabbled with it back in the 60's but it never took off. Even stateside Honda had it implemented before that with the NSX in 1991 and the Del Sol in 93 I think?

I should send them an e-mail. :rick:

I was going to say an Italian company but I wasn't completely sure.
