Pure Impulse Card - USA

Has anyone in the USA received their Pure Impulse Card? Have you received anything from BMW recognizing your purchase?

A piece of carbon in a display case. Otherwise, nada. I'll be sure praised if they do anything with he Pure Impulse cars in the US.

I was promised the first i8 delivered in California but was told it was a Pure Impulse World. (The "worlds." What dreadful names.)

When I learned it added $10,000+ for a color interior I didn't want, some stitching on the headrests and an i8 badge on the door jam, I passed. I got maybe the 50th delivered in California. (It arrived October 31 but I had to wait another two weeks while BMW sorted out whatever it was that it sorted out.)

I think $10,000 for 2 months was a decent trade off. I don't think Pure Impulse is worth the price.

I completely agree. I went with the giga interior and if I really want to I'll buy the door sills and ask them to put them in.

Same here, purchased end of December with PI and nothing so far no card or event or anything. This whole i8 purchasing planning and delivery process has been a joke. Thank god I have an awesome sales rep at my local dealer that worked it for me.

I have been told by my dealer that I should be receiving more details in 2 weeks. Will keep the PI owners posted here.
