I received the offer for the car control class and called and asked to attend the 1 day M school in Greer (outside Spartanburg SC). They credited me the price for the car control class and I had to pay less than 50% the cost of the 1 day M class as they also allowed me to leverage my BMW CCA discount.
I invited my brother in-law along, and we're going to make a weekend of it, drive the M3 down, drive the Skyline dr in the Shenandoah valley. Approx 12 hrs each way. I'm based outside of Philly (Doylestown Pa). We'll be at the M class on Sept. 8, 2018

If you don't upgrade you will also potentially be sharing your car with other students. |

Tip: Since you have the same M2/M3/M4 depending on which exercise you're doing, save your settings in a profile or on a memory button. The next student that has that car will probably change the settings and you'll have to set everything back again if you don't save your settings.

WTF? I've had 10 BMWs all through BMWFS, done european delivery, done PCD and live less than 2 hours away from the Spartanburg plant and no invite. I'm switching to Porsche.

One Day course Perf Center: go?
As a new M3 owner, I was offered by BMW USA a one-day course at any of their Performance Center.
Which class is this? Is this a one-day M-class or a regular 1 day course? Is it worth it to go? Do they pay for hotel and air-fare?

It's not the M class. You are responsible for getting there. They will pay for the hotel if you are financing through BMW FS or if you upgrade to the 2 day M class. I think it's worth it.

They took down my information and the car's VIN and said someone would get back to me after verifying the offer. No one called me back for 3 days, so I did and they apologized and said verification had been completed. I booked my class and paid the difference right away.

I was expecting something in the mail with a special redemption code like my last two offers. I also had the same experience when scheduling my last class. They said they would call me back in a few days as they verified my eligibility but they never did. When I called back on my own everything went through fine though. |

I did PCD before ... I assume it would be very similar ... it was still fun but all the exercises were short ... pcd was in an M since I took delivery of a M... the free class I don't think it's M cars

uhh still don't see a concise answer on this question: If I upgrade to 1 day M school and I bring my girlfriend, will my girlfriend be able to spend the day with me on the track or will she just sit around and twiddle her thumbs in the lobby?

I had the same question and had my wife ask when scheduling. The response was for the 2 day at thermal, she is not able to come and watch. She's going to stay at the spa and do girl stuff.

Now with the Thermal location that statement isn't as applicable (no patio to lounge at) but I think the rule still applies. |

Didn't read the whole thread but a heads up to the competitive ones going to the one day school. Towards the end of the day, be ready for a rat race competition and time attack fastest lap competition. Came in 2nd on the rat race but won fastest lap! The only drawback is they put you in a 340i and M240i for the one day school. They don't put you in the M cars.
The top 3 are all M3 owners Super fun experience. The registration girl who helped me told me they invite people for every other car they lease or purchase. Also, if you're going to Thermal, CA they set us up in the JW Marriot in Palm Desert. Well worth the trip to get there.

I think she meant the person gets invited on their 2nd, 4th, 6th cars. This was my 4th BMW when I got the invite. I don't think they had this program on my 1st and 2nd car.
