AUTOWEEK which is not a choice but is the correct answer.

I find Vette to be a little more down to earth, with features including not just the high-dollar show cars but the rough-around-the-edges daily drivers as well. Vette also has more tech articles covering a wide range of repairs and upgrades, and reach out to all the generations fairly well. Corvette Magazine seems mostly about the pristine trailer queens and big buck rolling advertisements put out by a handful of builders. Oh, and ads, ads and more ads. The last issue I picked up had the first article nearly halfway through the copy - it was all ads for the first 25 pages or so! And I could rarely spot an article about C3s unless it was about an ultra-rare L88 or ZL1.

I've tried every Corvette based magazine since the early '80s and have stuck with Vette the whole time. Others come and go. Vette is the only subscription I've kept continuously for over 32 years, and I still have every copy.

I may also have a little bias toward them: they featured my modified '74 coupe back in the August 2010 issue, and my '14 Stingray was recently in the readers' rides section!
