Did you get an offer from BMW for a free one-day car control school?

mad_max · 08-31-2016, 04:45 PM

Who else got an offer from BMW USA for a free one day car control school at one of the perfomance centers?

AutoTalent · 08-31-2016, 05:01 PM

Did you get it in the mail or an email invitation?

bob330i · 08-31-2016, 05:53 PM

oooo, I hope I get one.....

Fake News 2017 · 08-31-2016, 05:54 PM

no :-)

duky · 08-31-2016, 06:03 PM

Got it a couple of weeks ago for our car we bought in March. My understanding is that all M owners get it?

M-Pilot · 08-31-2016, 06:08 PM

My friend who bought his car in March got an email invitation and I haven't received anything (my purchase was in June). In the email it says something like "...as a thank you for being Financial Services customer we offer...". Therefore, I called both BMW USA and BMW FS. They both didn't know what I was talking about. I even forwarded them the email my friend received but heard nothing back. I'm not happy about it at all. They not only offer a free car control school but also free 2-night stay at a nearby hotel.

I got my car in June,, I have not got any letter,, I ask the dealer if you got a day at the tracks when I bought the car and they said no... I have a M4..

boss2k · 08-31-2016, 07:23 PM

Nope, i wish i got it

BMWFanatic2008 · 08-31-2016, 07:24 PM

Maybe it's for people who didn't do PCD already?

I have a M3 and a X5, both are with BMW FS. According to the fine print I can also use the value of this towards any other class. I'm thinking of paying the difference and upgrading to the one day M school.

boi222 · 08-31-2016, 10:27 PM

I didn't get anything

mad_max · 09-01-2016, 08:58 AM

Here is the email I got.

alz0rz · 09-01-2016, 08:59 AM

I just did a search for something like this in my email.. and I found it... from way back in June.

Subject line: BMW welcomes you to the most thrilling school on the planet.

Excerpt ...And now there are more reasons than ever to get on the track and see what you can do. Because you are such a loyal BMW customer, we invite you to enjoy a one day car control school free of charge. We’ll also include a complimentary 2-night hotel stay as a thank you for being a BMW Financial Services contract holder...

T/C say... Offer is only available to current, original owners of a new BMW, who have also previously owned 5 or more “New” or “Certified Pre-Owned” BMWs. Offer valid for one year after delivery date of your new BMW. Classes may be taken later, but must be booked before the 12 month window ends. Offer applies to a “one-day car control school” class. Approximate market value ($775) subject to change without prior notice. Value may be applied to any other BMW Performance Driving School class. A two-night, double occupancy accommodation at a BMW recommended hotel is included with this offer. Based upon availability, we will reserve a non-smoking room with a king-size bed, unless otherwise notified by your Client Advisor. Current BMW Financial Services contract required for accommodation. Excludes airfare, incidental costs, meals and additional charges. Offer is non-transferable.

I've not owned 5 BMW's but still got the message.

My count is 5. 3 CPO cars previously and now 2 brand new cars. All through BMW FS.

BigSky702 · 09-01-2016, 11:50 AM

darn! received the letter, but no offer of hotel stay or free course day!

twin turbo · 09-01-2016, 11:59 AM

I just found my email that I received way back in April. It says half off the car control class and complimentary 2 night hotel stay.

M-Pilot · 09-01-2016, 12:05 PM

This is my friend's 3rd BMW and still got the offer. I don't think you have to own 5 or more BMWs in the past.

av0789 · 09-01-2016, 12:24 PM

I just got the email yesterday, I got my m3(2nd bmw) in may.
