Got my first year anniversay gift

ibimmer954 · 06-13-2011, 07:33 PM

I have had the lease on my 535i for a year now. Just like on my 335i lease, BMW just sent me a copy of a hand-drawn design sketch of the car. They put it in a nice white presentation folder. Pretty nice. Thx BMWNA!

Be on the lookout for yours when you first anniversary rolls over.

do those who purchase (instead of lease) also get a gift?

Yeah , the registration was $784. Does everyone in the country get gouged like this or just us in CA?

im not looking forward to renewing my registration! but didnt BMW give out the carbon fiber pens? or was that for 2nd year? i just remember they sent me a nice pen when i had my 335 along with the picture

ibimmer954 · 06-14-2011, 12:15 AM

$771 was my bill to the DMV.

And there's this talk that the California DMV fees might be cut in half! Just missed it.

Hey guys, think yourselves lucky

I just priced two similarly specified 550i's - one in the US and the other over here in the UK. You pay $69,600, we pay £64,200 ($105,200)

I lease. I got the drawing of my 335i on its first anniversary. It was totaled before the second one. I don't recall if I got anything for the first year in the M3, but I got the carbon fiber pen for the second year. (And it wasn't exactly at the anniversary, LACSTER. Might still be coming.)

What is that registeration bill for? is that $$ sent to BMW, or sent to state goverment?
nvm, that is DMV bill.

ibimmer954 · 06-14-2011, 07:07 PM

State government... you know.. car registration. In California, part of the bill is a fee based on something like 1% of the car's market value. Or whatever the state of California decides what the value is. Then you get the sticker you can put on your license plate.

pramit · 06-14-2011, 10:36 PM

for those in california, you can calculate your registration renewal fee here:

you'll need your plate #, last 5 of VIN, and zip on the address it's registered.

Wow, that's bad. We pay $74 a year in Ontario for our sticker. And I thought that was gouging.
