$1000 BMW Drive for Team USA Allowance
After I registered for the "BMW Drive for Team USA" thingy, I got this email that said I get $1000 towards the purchase or lease of a new 2012 or 2013 BMW. Does this apply to any other discounts we got?
Here is an excerpt of the email. "You wont want to miss this competitive event. As a thank you, only registered attendees will receive the limited-time $1,000 BMW Drive for Team USA Allowance, good toward the purchase or lease of a new 2012 or 2013 BMW model.* And once you have completed your experience, BMW will also recognize your drive with a $10 donation to Team USA. |

Drive a bmw, by yourself, get a free hat and a thousand bucks...
I did it when we bought my wife's x3. Drove a 650 for twenty minutes and made $1000, not a bad return The 650 at the time was what BMW NA sent, so it's on their insurance (as are the competitor cars they bring, which I believe varies depending on who their biggest competition in that region is, Mercedes in my case), so for those you don't need a sales rep to go with you. |

I did this last year when I was thinking of getting an F10 and I remember now that it cannot be used for ED purchases.

I'll be taking delivery just a week or so before I'm signed up for this. I hope I can still use this

Thanks for the heads up about this event/promotion. I didn't know about it.
I registered and anyone can register (even if you don't have an ID code mailed to you) at: https://www.bmwusa.com/Secured/Conte...UDESummer.aspx You just have to find when/where the traveling rodeo of test BMW's is coming to your town and select the model you wish to drive. Be sure to pick a dealership. This is very similar to the Susan Komen Race for the Cure promotion (BMW no longer participates in it). Customers test drive vehicles and BMW donates to the charity.

Upon further research, it appears that if you ordered the vehicle before registering for this event, you won't be able to get the discount. I'm gonna try though. Has anyone used this discount?
Oh, and ED is not eligible. Sorry. |

How quick did you get the email from BMW? I signed up this afternoon and haven't received anything. Starting to worry I mistyped my email address.

I signed up too but did not receive a confirmation email either
Tremolo, how do you know that it can't be applied to an existing order? I just ordered my F30 a few days ago and would like to get this $1000 credit applied if possible. |

I'm gonna try to use it anyways. Cos technically, you can refuse the order and order a new one at another dealer. Of course I don't wanna do that. Waiting another 2 months to save $1000 is not worth it to me. |
