I bought this months Evo to read all about the development of turbo cars over the years. On the cover is a lovely red F40. Now this got me thinking. This car must have shifted so many magazines over the years. Possibly more than any other car? No idea, but it must be up there. Think how many covers this has been plastered over since 1987. And it is still being used as an icon.

So, any other contenders to the title of most popular cover car?

Yes I did consider the F1 as well. But think how many magazines the F40 shifted even before that came out. Then the F40 gets a second wind as it gets compared to all th new breeds again.

Good call regarding the classic cars. You may be onto something there. I guess each magazine has a small circulation compared to the new car mags, but there are so many of them to compensate. So I think you could be right. Maybe something like an E-type could be ahead.
