I've been a member since I bought my 318ti. I've only participated in a few BMWCCA events, but my favorite has been the car clinic where I was able to do some braking exercises, the skid pad, and slalom. Nowadays, I just like to take advantage of the parts discount.

No if's and's or but's join the BMWCCA. You get a 15-20% discount on parts and supplies from your local dealer, 12 issues of a very professional club magazine (and its a real magazine with great articles and info), local chapter membership and it's news letter. You can participate in Autocross, Driver's schools, Saftety/Car handling schools, Rally/Fall fun tours, Club racing, Concourse, club social events and gatherings, $500-$1500 off your new or CPO purchase of a BMW (after 1/yr of being a member). All for $40/yr, need I say more.

I am planning to join the Boston Chapter BMWCCA the coming Spring in order to attend the driving school. There is also something called Ice Racing going on in Newfound Lake, NH, during the winter that I may want to check out.

If she already payed for it you should receive a letter in the mail and your roundel magazines should start coming. It will have you membership card with # on it,i also received a letter from my local chapter.

I buy from Circle BMW in NJ. They keep telling me that the over the phone purchasing discount is more than the BMWCCA discount, so they don't discount for membership.

Something about that seems wrong. I will ask them in more detail, next time I buy parts from them.

I hope she used my number as a referral.
When you join the BMWCCA you are assigned a chapter based on your zip code unless you ask for another chapter.
Go to http://www.bmwcca.org/members/AM/Tem...ersSection.cfm and enter your zip code to find your local chapter.

The club is a great investment. Do it. Now.

what, you still waiting? What does it cost, the same as an oil change?

are you too cheap to do an oil change?

Shame on you! You don't deserve such a fine car if you won't do an oil change!

Get the companion too. I'm in that book along with an amazing number of other great people, so if you break down somewhere, you can find someone nearby to help out (even if you are too cheap to do an oil change).
