I should probably start by getting a CCA membership myself LOL
I joined this year, mostly because I thought getting a car-related periodical in the mail would be novel. My initial impression is that the clubs target audience tends to yuppies as opposed to hipsters like myself.

The club magazine tries at times to be all things but does skew older with $$$$ = the demographic more likely to buy/lease a new BMW and that is more BMW "lifestyle" oriented. The bmwcca race coverage pages are a nod to another focus and a holdover from an earlier time.
Occasionally there are aspects of the magazine that I find interesting typically the historical stuff and some of the columns (Farnsworth, Siegel, Jenny Morgan when she was still in, Mike Miller). I'm in the club to support the Badger Bimmer track events that got me started and because of the people I've met over the years.
As for car-related periodicals I find Grassroots Motorsports more to my liking. Coverage comes closer to things I'm more likely to do to a car or things I'd purchase. Plus they always have cheap subscription deals that come with tshirts and other swag.

Grassroots is a great one! I don't have a BMWCCA membership anymore because I never attended the events. I really enjoyed the magazine but it got to a point where I just stopped reading them once I had my son. I still have some in the wrapper! I'd agree that it does skew towards the people who financially support BMW by purchasing/leasing new but I wouldn't say it's any worse than Motortrend, Car and Driver, etc. The classic coverage is good and racing coverage is nice because they will cover BMW Motorsport from a global perspective. All in all I looked at it as an expensive magazine subscription.

Interesting, I never saw that car before.

@AsparagusMike were you driving past the Darboy club at like 6:45 this morning?

So I've spotted a clean white E30 buzzing around Milwaukee. One of yous guys?
Also I was driving down 76th street on the south side and saw what appeared to be a really clean black E36 M3 with a big Wang and bronze/gold wheels.

Running and driving non-LS E30 and you have the nerve to ask if it's a WIBIMMERS car? Did you forget where you are?
