C! Magazine, Inc. - Makati City

I purchased the latest "Ultimate Buyers Guide" magazine hoping for a car magazine that would be the equal of the western car mags that I normally read. What a let down. What I found was a magazine filled with technical errors (no prof readers?) I am sure that BMW would be interested that apparently their bikes from 700cc to 1200 are all powered by the same engine with the same power output. They also may be shocked to learn that their all new 125 BHP boxer twin is in fact powered by a V4 that produces 184 BHP! With the cars it would seem that every car sold in the Philippines is great, or that at least is what you learn reading this mag. No criticism at all, just page after page of slavish praise. Are they afraid to criticize the manufacturers? I would expect to be able to read the good and bad points about a car (all cars have them). With the cars they have tested they hae a rating system and the vast majority have 9.5 and above rating! How can that be? On the cars that they have given 8.5 there is no mention why, just praise about how great they are. It reads like an advertising brochure. A magazines job is to inform and also express an opinion. By just lavishing praise on every car sold here they are doing a disservice to their readers. They should be calling out the manufacturers for selling cars here that have been panned by the press in most other countries. It makes one wonder if they are not "too close" to said manufacturers. Of course they have no contact email. They would not want their readers to raise criticism directly
