Gift From BMW

rc'Z · 04-14-2008, 09:04 AM

Looked out my front door Saturday and found a rain soaked box from BMW. Thanks USPS. Luckly the contents were in a plastic holder. BMW sent me a little BWM is great book, a questioneer for their magazine and a couple of catalogs, a DVD for BMW is great, four CD stories for listenting to on the road, and my owners card. Kind of a neat little gift. Oh yes, a little note saying welcome to BWM,..... September, October, November, December, January, Feburary, March, middle to April. (MINI Cooper folks were much more on the ball with their little MINI Coopers are great packages!) Welcome a little slow, but still love the car.

I got a little book from BMW even though I bought used from a non-BMW dealer. I took my car in to have it inspected (free of charge) at a BMW dealer.

03BeastCharmer · 04-15-2008, 10:31 PM

I got mine about 4 months into ownership. Haven't listened to the stories yet.

I bought both my BMW from the dealership. This one is CPO'd, and I paid a nice dollar over the going rate on autotrader and other sites.

Lots of looks, lots of bills, a really dark skin tone, bad "farmer's tan", lots of smiles and a bunch of debt

Those who received these stories, what are they about? Who narrates them?

And if you have to buy new to get it, then it's a a gift that you paid x-thousand dollars for!

I got something similar when I bought a Mercedes. They gave me a nice leather wallet and a nice black "MB" throw. Haven't received anything from BMW... except the delaer giving me keychains, license plate frames, free details, free gas.... HHmm~
