More details on spark plug malfunctions? A thorough explanation of clutch wear and adjustment? The inside story of idle solenoids? A review of the next sporty saloon's traction control, written by a man with a mustache? — The creators of "Intersection" don't offer such perspectives on car culture.

In the last decade, a new generation of car owners has emerged. They are as obsessed with their vehicles as the "car nuts" of the past, but their interests are not limited to cars alone, but are part of an interconnected lifestyle that extends to music, movies, design, sports, computer games, and fashion. Therefore, "Intersection" raises its head from under the hood and looks out at the wider world surrounding the modern "ride." For those who see cars in the context of urban traffic jams, boy racers, powerful sound systems, and off-road escapes, it reinvents motoring journalism and photographic expression.

"Intersection 'the book'," produced by the team behind "Dazed & Confused," is a preview edition that preceded the bimonthly magazine's launch in 2002. It features eye-catching cars from around the world, interviews with famous owners such as Bianca Jagger and Jarvis Cocker, road trips, dream cars, short stories about tire changes, and even a test drive of a Humvee Jeep by the editor-in-chief's grandmother, making it a limited edition "launch pad."

Designed as a book with refined beauty, "Intersection" brings humor and style back to car articles, showing us both the reality and the fantasy of 21st-century motoring through a large windshield. This is where culture and cars finally come together.
