Is the BMW Magazine subscription free?

Hi, does anyone know if the BMW Magazine subscription that you can get shipped home at the owner's circle website is free? Thanks.

Yes, I do know - and yes, it's free.

It's really just a marketing tool. But it has pretty pictures of cars I can't afford, so it's fun to look at.

I had my E92-335i at the dealers shop last week and they had piles of free copies of the BMW Magazine everywhere there. It is after all advertising, so this makes sense.

I get it free but to tell you the truth, i wouldn't pay for it. Really isn't that great. If it wasn't free i would read it. Maybe once every 3-4 issuses i find something really interesting but other than that.. .. .. Nothing. It says like $4.99 on the mag but mine comes free and pretty much every BMW dealership in southern calif. i've been to has a stack of them sitting around in the guest lounge for free.
But is that true it only comes free with a $50,000 auto purchase?
I lease my car and i get it.. .. .. ..

it is free but you have to resend the renewal card once in a while to have it keep coming. it is totally a marketing tool though.

Also free with purchase of any BMW...you get 1 on each wheel, 1 on the hood, 1 on the trunk lid, 1 on the steering wheel and 1 on the engine cover.....did I miss any?

As an aside, how can something be free if you pay for it? If you walk into Dunkin Donuts and they hand you a cup of coffee without taking money from you, that would be a free cup of coffee. If they give you a free cup of coffee with purchase of a donut, that is not free.

BMW magazine is free because no purchase is necessary. There is even a price to pay for freedom...and not let us forget that there is no such thing as a free lunch. Free the Chicago 7......
