''Automobile'' is a United States-based automobile magazine published by TEN: The Enthusiast Network. A group of former employees of ''Car and Driver'' led by David E. Davis founded ''Automobile'' in 1986 with support from Rupert Murdoch's News Corporation – using the credo ''No Boring Cars.''〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.insideline.com/car-news/david-e-davis-jr-automotive-journalisms-hemingway-on-wheels-is-dead.html )〕 ''Automobile'' distinguishes itself as more of a lifestyle magazine than the other automotive publications, an editorial theme that Davis greatly expanded upon from his tenure as the editor of ''Car and Driver''. Unlike most other automobile magazines, ''Automobile'' does not often do instrumented tests of cars or provide much technical data. Instead, the reviews of vehicles are subjective experiential reports with the cars in their naturally intended, real world environment. Additionally, ''Automobile'' reserves a good portion of each issue covering vehicles no longer in production, but still relevant to collectors or automotive history as a whole. For example, the magazine includes features such as "Collectable Classic," an in-depth review of a particular older car, and reports from recent classic and antique car auctions. ''Automobile'' also has a regular column by former General Motors designer Robert Cumberford, who analyzes styling elements of current production models and show cars, often linking their design to those of older cars.〔http://www.cision.com/us/2013/06/top-10-national-automotive-magazines/〕 For its first 25 years, ''Automobile'' was headquartered in Ann Arbor, Michigan in the building of the former ''The Pretzel Bell'', a college dive bar.〔"Vile Gossip", Jean Jennings, ''Automobile'', November, 2007〕〔"(Liberty Street - ArborWiki )"〕 In May 2014, ''Automobile'' relocated from Ann Arbor to Los Angeles and cut staff significantly, including longtime editor-in-chief Jean Jennings, who had helped David E. Davis found the magazine. Jennings remains editor-in-chief of the website JeanKnowsCars.com. There is no relationship between ''Automobile'' and the similarly titled French publication ''L’Automobile Magazine'', which was founded in 1946 and is published by Motor Presse France. == Publishers == 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Automobile (magazine)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
