It did have tons of car articles in it, and personally it looks like maxim with a few nude photos in it. Im extremely disappointed, i think marc bell could have done better with it. Id love to here what everyone else has to say about it when they get to look it over.

The magazine is in transition - that pre-release copy you got will be nothing like what Penthouse looks like 9 months from now. You can't change a magazine overnight, there is a long lead time in the magazine business - Marc is just hiring the new people now, sports editor, movie editor, etc - on the hunt for new photographers, new girls etc
They are looking for girl next door types, American or Canadian girls with personality enough to do mainstream as well.
September 2005 is the target for the first issue that will really be the NEW Penthouse, but you'll start to see the changes and experimentation starting now.
