Project Cars
The editorial focuses on a wide variety of staff-owned cars, usually with a very hands-on, do-it-yourself point of view. Recent GRM project cars have included a Mazda MX-5 autocrosser, a MINI Cooper S race car, a Saab 99 rally car, a Volkswagen Golf track car and a LeGrand autocrosser. One of the most famous project cars in the magazine's history is the Ro-Spit, a 200-plus-horsepower, rotary-powered Triumph Spitfire.

“A candidate once called his opponent “a willful, obstinate, unsavory, obnoxious, pusillanimous, pestilential, pernicious, and perversable liar” without pausing for breath, and even his enemies removed their hats.”
—Federal Writers’ Project Of The Wor, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
“I think that cars today are almost the exact equivalent of the great Gothic cathedrals: I mean the supreme creation of an era, conceived with passion by unknown artists, and consumed in image if not in usage by a whole population which appropriates them as a purely magical object.”
—Roland Barthes (1915–1980)
