I belong.

Benefits;
Local tech sessions are great, the techs at dealership that my club utilize are very cool.

10% discount is good but so is the Buy Parts link on the top of this page. Luckily my local dealer parts people are very good also.

Magazine has some tech articles and Q&A sessions which you can never get enough of.

Mercedes offers some nice cash back incentives on new cars to MBCA members.

No matter what car I owned if there were a national/regional club for it I would join.

Joining MBCA along with this forum have made my Mercedes ownership affordable and my car wouldn't be in the excellent shape it is in now with 90K miles.
