Did you receive any gifts after getting your car?

Curious, those who have been with their cars for a few weeks now -- is BMW giving out any goodies or the high performance driving class coupons at the performance center?

Nope. Only thing I've gotten is a "Thanks for giving us all your money!" card and a 15% off accessories coupon.

So, nope.

I'm kinda surprised about this. One thing I have noticed is that not every one of my purchases gave a "gift".
M235 nothing
328 a usb jump drive
M550 nothing
135 art print of car

I can't discern any pattern to it.

Yea, seems rather random. They are a nice gesture, but none are particularly useful.

For $100, you can do a 2-hour New Owner Event at Thermal, CA. Normally $299. That’s all I’ve been able to dig up (thanks, FB group friends).

I highly doubt anyone is getting anything from NA anymore. They've stopped what's called the "surprise and delight" items awhile back. The E generation mostly got the drawings, but there were also notebooks, pens, etc.

Now you get a car and a smile.

When I lived in a different city, the dealer there would send me a tin of cookies after I bought a new BMW. That was nice. I remember the "art" drawing of my E92, and I think I got a nice carbon-fiber rollerball "BMW" pen after I got something... and that USB flash drive, but nothing since then. No, not even a cookie.

Would it kill them to throw in an umbrella?

Got an 2021 X3M in December and the G80 M3 in March and still nothing for both. But I did lose all my remote features, traffic updates, and connect drive subscription

A couple friends (from different dealerships) have received tons of gifts from their dealerships. For instance when they each took delivery of an X7 they got BMW branded toys for the kids, mugs, hats, etc.

That is unheard of now a days. That used to be a thing. They all stopped doing that. That a huge haul.

i got next to nothing in terms of a loot bag ... could be cuz i negotiated out all of the bullsht and bogus fees dealer was trying to charge LOL

A dealer branded pen, one jug of windshield washer fluid, a pack of bmw roundel stem valve caps, and some bmw branded cabin air refreshner stick in some reusable bmw shopping bag was all i got

I did get a free set of rubber mats however, and will pick those up with the M branded parts are instock.

BMW could learn a little from Porsche in this department. When I purchased a CPO 911 they sent me a personal letter from Porsche NA president, a carbon fiber pen, and a history of Porsche book all in a commemorative box set.

At the performance center I got two travel mugs and a magnet from the factory tour that now lives on my refrigerator.

No, all I got was the car and the fake smiles because the dealer got a good percentage of the sale. Such gifts as you listed are very rare. I didn't even get a coupon. No, I'm not offended, but damn, I paid that much money. Couldn't they have given a small discount on some crap I didn't need? Besides, it wasn't me who got the car. It was my wife, along with all the other heartwarming gifts. Men, you must know how to please our wonderful women
