The only bit of media I got was an accessories DVD when I picked up the X3. It was accessories for the old X3. Brilliant

I got a rock.
Nope, no welcome kit for me. It could be because of the seriously nasty letter I sent to the asswipe who manages ConnectedDrive.... but I doubt they are sophisticated and organized enough to officially blacklist me - because that would take sophistication and organizational skills. I got a nice welcome kit for one of my E90's - which included a nice pen&ink print of the concept drawing of the E90, signed by the designer. I think they probably randomly select certain owners to give this stuff to, which is a sort of odd way of doing it. But it does align with their practice of randomly assembling the vehicles properly at the factory... so I guess it makes sense.

I think Lotus earned his. Shame the access to the ultimate free maintenance does absolutely nothing

I got an "email"...telling me that I would receive a gift. I think that was about four months ago. I finally gave up going to the mailbox for my "gift".

Quote BMW: "Just use your new VIN below to activate your account. That is where the road truly begins."
Turns out, the "road" is really a dead end! FYI: At 38 grams, the supplied flash drive must be one of the heaviest ones on the planet. It's also so fat that I had to connect it through a short extension cable because there's not enough room between USB ports for the giant drive to fit. It does look pretty cool. I'm thinking of using it as a "Valet Key" since the buttons on it won't start or unlock the car. |

The really weird thing is that now if I do a Google search for Audi, Mercedes, Porsche, Lexus, Acura, or Ferrari, for some reason my browser is directed to This Web Site. Also, whenever I try to type Mercedes in a letter, the font changes to "✭❅❒❃❅❄❅▲". I'm sure it has nothing to do with the free BMW software. Really strange, You don't think....? |

I still don't understand what the welcome kit gives you access to. Is it just marketing fluff?
