Anyone know where to buy Options mag in the Eastbay?

Is there anywhere I can pickup a copy of Options mag or Hyperrev in the East or South bay?

Preferably somewhere open on Sunday.

I know it's a little far from the eastbay, but the bookstore at the Japan Town mall in SF has alot of options and hyper rev mags AND is open on sundays
Fun trip and good food there!

Are you looking for something specific Mike?

Yes apparently the latest editions have some coverage of the Super Lap Battle and covered the L so I would like to get a couple of copies for the shop to add to our collection.

Someone said there was somewhere in San Jose but I don't know where it is.

Hey Mike. Maybe you can get a copy of the Redline TV show on Speed Channel. They had some short footage of the L down at Buttonwillow for Super Lap Battle.

you'd think they would send you crap like that for free, since your image along with all the other cars is the only thing keeping media stuff like that afloat.

The SF store rules because they dont get mad at you for looking, the SJ one would probly say " are you gonna buy that?"\

is that SJ one a big store? or a small car shop? cuz i want to go get my library on, im not paying $31 for one of those things

I heard they really didn't get any footage of the L during that show as they focus more on what Tanner is driving which for that event was the XS Engineering Skyline and a Honda S2k. I'll see if I can get a copy of it to check out.

I know there is tons of footage in the upcoming episode with Tanner driving the MPME Scion tC we helped with. I think I even crushed the camera guy during one of the driver changes

Ya I've bought like 4-5 of those magazines that are specific to the GC....now that I think about it damn they add up and I could have spent that money on more usefull stuff for my car lol. Whenever people at work see them on my desk or anyone else sees me looking at one they ask if I can read japanese and I tell them no and its just a big picture book basically lol.

Option mags should only be $10-12 @ the Kinokinuya on Saratoga.

And they don't nag you to buy stuff, they just look at us crackers kinda funny
