I also got an image of my E92 M3. But BMWNA hasn't done anything like that for about 10 years now.

Understand that when in comes to the company or the Managers making obscene money these days; fairness, loyalty etc.. mean jack to them.

What goes around comes around, and some of us that have long memory; will remember this type of treatment, when the time comes to make another purchase in the future. Can you say: Car broker or another dealership?

Most companies are convinced that customers have very short memories and they will be back when prices adjust. It sucks though.

I got a thank you email from the General Manager.

I can’t remember what was in this box, think it was like chocolates and biscuits and stuff. Also got a couple of BMW keychains, and this hilarious picture of a 5 GT.

If you want GREAT freebies from BMW, then European Delivery was the ticket. What a wonderful program it was. (especially if you went during Oktoberfest

)

Over the years Bmw has sent a few trinkets or stuff to people that buy specific cars, that were a niche car is like the z4 coupe above

I got a couple of "form letter" impersonal emails from the GM. Same guy who 13 years ago brought in the F&I criminal who tried to rip me off for over $5200. I sent the GM a box of these delicious chocolates.

My BMW dealer emailed me a happy birthday card before anyone else - one day b4 my actual birthday. They wrote something like they wanted to be the first to congratulate.

NickyC · 02-09-2022, 02:41 PM

Zip nada when I bought my G82.

jmg · 02-09-2022, 05:30 PM

I've gotten a $800 and a $1500 voucher for the BMW Performance Center for my 2 previous M cars, and some silver USB drives that look like BMW keyfobs for others.

I just picked up an M4, not sure yet if they will send anything. From the dealer I've gotten an M thermos, Hat, and a gift box containing a pen,small flashlight and leather keychain. I've gotten a 20% off voucher for anything in the bmw store, so one year I bought an M Performance Exhaust with a nice $6000*0.20=$1200 discount.

I love the greeting card that turns into porn sounds and doesn't stop...too funny.

Oh yeah, I neglected to mention that I included that too. I hope the scene went something like this - hot young strumpet brings the package to the GM. He's perplexed because it doesn't look like anything he's expecting, so she hangs around for him to open it. The card starts playing its nonstop "porno sounds" as he tries frantically to silence it. Glitter bomb makes a huge mess of his desk.

After all that excitement dies down, he opens the enclosed box to find the box of chocolate assholes. My full statement of what I think of his dealership and his criminal employee has now been made and received.

My SA put My car on the shipper to me(arriving tomorrow) and told me there are two gifts with the car. I thought I was getting nada, turns out I was wrong. I just don’t know what it is yet

skyline408 · 02-10-2022, 10:54 AM

When I picked up my new car, the dealer offered me an accessory. Knowing it was going to rain later, I picked out a simple umbrella. When I actually opened it up it was really high quality and had a big M logo on it.

Kayrohit · 02-13-2022, 03:05 PM

I didn’t even get a poster haha

Topcarbon · 02-13-2022, 03:12 PM

Dealership put some all weather Mats and a key cover
Better than nothing

BGM-M3COMP · 02-15-2022, 07:53 PM

All i got was a phone number from the receptionist that handed me my plates.

Crazy part is we're both taken lol. Or at least that's what my salesman said after i told him about it.

No i didn't call her.
