MB Owners Magazine?

Is there an official MB Owners Magazine sent out by MB similar to BMW? I bought my C Class used so I would like to know how to get on the mailing list if there is one.

MBCCA puts out "the Star" bi-monthly... its about like Roundel from BMWCCA, except Roudel is better

I'm not sure if MB corporate sends out a rag, hell, I didn't think BMW corporate sent anything out!

By the way, the Star is about 50 bucks a year for 6 issues. Probably some subscription form is with your owners manual material.

i read the star at where i got my hair cut... the dude who cuts my hair drives a CLK55...

the magazine wasn't really all that.. i dont think it's worth the money... you may as well pay 12 bucks and get car and driver or something...

my 2 cents

cityscape, I was registered on MBUSA's website since the summer and recently recieved Mercedes Momentum from them. I am also a MBCA member since last summer which you should have recieved an application when you picked up your car new.

www.mbca.org

It is $45 and one of the nicest MB mags but only available to memebers.

I get some magazine called "Mercedes" that seems to be a glossy factory publication. Not bad.

I also get the Star, which is pretty good, the Roundel, which is better (awesome, actually, my favorite car mag overall), and Panorama, which is the worst of the 3.

If you read German, try BMW Magazin. It's a factory "lifestyle" magazine with the occasional decent article on their cars. It's published quarterly.

About "Mercedes" magazine, one copy of it that I have is the 3/2001 issue (German text), which has an article on the new SL. Unfortunately, the cover shot of this issue shows the SL against the pre-September 11th New York city skyline

Does anyone else get the Mercedes products magazine that tries to sell you all sorts of MB labeled stuff like shirts and watches etc? I get one every month or so.
