It's true they have the same publisher but their missions are slightly different. R&T is based in Southern California and leans more towards tweedy sports car types (that is how they started), C&D is a mass-market publication that has old writers who try to act young.
The Brit mags are the best, CAR and Top Gear, although if you get one you don't need the other. The American mag AUTOMOBILE uses most of the same writers/photogs as CAR and virtually republishes many of their articles. Now that DED Jr is semi-gone there are fewer "hunting for pheasant with captains of industry with my 6 bazillion dollar gun in my pimped out Range Rover" articles.
As you've probably noticed, if you're going to buy more than 2 or 3 issues of a magazine it's cheaper to subscribe, just beware that the price on those blow-in cards varies month by month so save the cheap ones (under $10).
