Before the 2&4 offices closed down earlier this year, the staff told me that Best Motoring was actually a liability for the growth of the company and even Hot Versions sales couldn't sustain the future of both titles. In fact, Hot Version sales outnumbered Best Motoring, 2:1. This put huge pressure on the production staff and so the decision was made by the parent publishing giant Kodansha to axe one title and ressurrect the other.

I'm familiar with the show, but what is the difference between Hot Version and Best Motoring? I thought it was Best Motoring International, Best Motoring (Japan only?), and Hot Version? Btw, lol, isn't Hot Version the one with the females in every episode?

Hot Version was exclusively modified cars.
