As a long time C/D reader, I continue to be disappointed by recent issues.
DOHC heads 10 (or even 20) years ago include the Triumph Sprint engine (early to mid 70's), the Alfa roadster (70's - 80's), the late-model Saab 99 (mid-late 70's), and many other performance-oriented moderately priced cars. Come to think of it, wasn't the 6 cylinder E-type Jag motor DOHC?
Ironically, Car and Driver had a recent editorial criticizing the British motoring press for ignorance & bias.
One interesting point - the recent comparison test that included the 9-3 had a criticism of the Saab's "bland door panels". I read that and just shook my head.
