5.0 out of 5 stars Improved since Book 1, Great collectible for future reference!, April 18, 2006

By	Michael P. Kukielka "BORG" (Rochester Hills, MI USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

While Book 1 was a great beginning, this book is even better with a more comprehensive overview of the American automotive scene. I accused Book 1 of being 'Eurocentric', but I can't say that about Book 2. While the author seems to speak to a European audience, the content is largely unbiased with some interesting sociological observations made here and there (largely in the preface).

It is important to note that the editorial content of this book is not comprehensive and should not be the main reason for purchase. The book is a beautiful pictorial overview of the international automotive scene for 2003. It's a collectible meant to be looked at years later as a way of recalling the trends and preferences of the era. Thankfully, this series will continue and buying the previous issues is a worthwhile investment.
