For the first time in the history of the annual Car Of Your Dreams raffle, the BMW Car Club of America will offer a grand prize custom-built and tuned with a full complement of performance parts from one of the world’s foremost authorities in BMW tuning—Dinan Engineering. Built, tested, and tuned at their California headquarters, the Dinan Club Edition M4 is unlike any grand prize that has come before. This no-expense-spared M4 boasts 530 horsepower, 504 pound-feet of torque, and a full array of carbon-fiber accessories.

In addition to Dinan, the Club has joined Forgeline wheels and Michelin tires to complete the special car. The M4 features a set of Forgeline GA1R lightweight forged performance wheels wrapped in Michelin Pilot Super Sport Tires for an aggressive look and maximum traction. Along with the upgraded wheels, the Grand Prize M4 features many BMW M Performance Parts carbon-fiber accessories.

Would love to win that baby! Just have to pay the taxes but even at 50% for "lottery winnings", it would still be a bargain. Wonder what the FMV is on that?

Sounds really good at the end of the clip... assuming of course it was the actual sound of the car in the video.

Haha, yes. The average person probably thinks you get a "Free Car" and just drive off but in reality some people without the means would probably have to sell it just to pay off the tax nut they owe for winning it. Damn gubment!

Still a beauty for sure! I'd strip all the good stuff off that car and put it on mine and THEN sell it. Haha!

Holy shit. A manual Dinan M4 for 25 bucks.

[shortseller]

Wonder if Dinan will start giving CCA discounts after this?

If its anything like previous years, BMWCAA gives the prize in cash, so you wouldn't get a free car at all.

EDIT: Read something that said this is a one-of-a-kind grand prize... so maybe they are actually giving a car away this time.

If anyone is on the fence about renewing / joining the CCA PM me and I can get you a bit of a discount on the annual membership fee or a renewal (which is under $50 btw).

Hopefully Karma pays off for my whole Lemon issue I have been dealing with



No really

What percent is the lottery tax on the M4? Is it based on 110k?

I know its based on the 110k but I really don't know what the accurate percentage is. Federal withholding on a lottery win is something like 25% and the state (GA) is I believe 6%. I wouldn't quote me on those numbers but it gives you a ballpark at least.

[Technic]

In the past, BMWCCA would give you some allowance for Federal taxes with the prize.

There's an article in the Jan 2015 issue of Roundel written by a guy that won an M235i (MSRP $44,000) in last year's BMWCCA raffle. He wrote that the national office sent 25% ($11,000) to the IRS, and the remaining $33000 was wired to him. Since he already had an E92 M3, he used the $33,000 to buy an i3 for his wife.

Strange thing about America: the lottery winning tax.

Not an issue up here.

True story though: I learned of this tax when my brother in law appeared on AND WON the showcase fucking showdown on the Price is Right. About 15 years ago, with Bob MOFO Barker.

....few things in my life have been more surreal than seeing my brother in law (in really bright orange pants) playing PLINKO with Barker's Beauties....

Anyway, he cashed in the Grand Marquis he won (the 'perfect' car for a 21 year old man...) and was eventually able to get back the bizarre tax y'all made him pay....

(his mother still has the FUGLY Dale Tiffany lamp he won to get off contestant's row....)

Anyway, nice car, nice prize, nonsensical tax.

omg... I'm dying.

I know someone who won a showcase showdown... She won a trip to Portugal, and a PT Cruiser.

But thats not why I'm dying... I'm gonna have to PM you.

[jdherman]

I'm already in for 2 tix. Fingers crossed.

It's not for me, says it is the slow 6 speed variety.
