It does say BMW on the chrome part and looks like it has a Carbon fiber weave as well.

They sent it for my 2 year anniversary with the car, for the first they sent me a drawing.

I spent over 160K with BMW in 09, was a little disapointed that they scraped their loyalty program as well. No gifts here either.

But to be honest, I dont expect anything in return except a reliable vehicle and exceptional customer service at the dealer which they have lived up to.

The small thank you is a nice gesture of appreciation though.

Does the CF help you write those cheques faster? There is a hidden meessge behind this I'm sure. lol

What's funny is that when I purchased a brand new x5 and was 10k more than my 335 I got nothing from BMW haha. I also got sent a 3-5 DVD disc collection about the history of BMW.

I'm sure the carbon fiber makes writing checks to BMW a little easier on the hand, haha.

I got a box like that in 2007, I don't even remember what the gift was, that's how unmemorable it was!!

But I do like the $100 gift card I got for test driving the 750Li. The car was boring, but what I'll do for $100 amazes me....heck, I drove the Touareg for movie tix.

I got nothing else except a bill asking for the 2nd year annual fee for the build-in communication service@@ Great experience! But what can I expect? It's Canada! BTW dealerships are asking $99800 + fees + tax for those full load Edition M3s. LOL!

I have 2 leather-wrapped BMW pens that I like a lot. I had to buy those so I'll be very happy if I get a third one just for being me
(and for giving BMW a ton of money).
