Guys

anyone did this already? in North East it is in late July

i wonder if there is a lease credit just like Drive for Team USA drives, if there is do you know if it applies to euro delivery?

i am waiting for 2014 lease numbers to come out to place an order for 335xi

Also an interesting test drive to directly drive competitor model

I did it a few weeks ago here in Dallas. I got a coffee mug and drove a few current BMW models. No M cars were available at my drive so it really was nothing more then a glorified test drive on local public streets.

I did it and got the credit. Aside from that, it was really lame. All they had were: a7, 640ix, rx300 and a total 328ix stripper. Pretty much a test drive with no CA in the car. Waste of time IMO, free coffee mug is nice though. Wish they did this at a track. I think the one you wanna do is the audi driving experience (also free), taking an r8 on a hot lap sounds a lot more fun!

I drive 640 sedan with Porsche Panamera. Panamera was ridiculously slow. and I was not surprised, last time I was test drive 528 with A6 and I don't know what they did - but A6 was not accelerating at all. I think they twitch something, that BMW looks good in this test drive.

The 6 series was the easy winner for me too. The a7 with the 3.0 SC felt sluggish when paired to the zf8, esp in comparison to my car with the dct (body weight obv factor). The a7 lane keep assist was scary, kept messing with the steering. I find the a4 sluggish so can't imagine an a6 with the 2.0t (feels competent in the lady friend's gti).

Would have enjoyed driving a P, didn't even waste my time with the rx300.

Yep. I did the one in Dallas (Plano), too. Worth it for the $1K, but I had to wait quite a bit. Doing a regular test drive would be better, i.e. no waiting, better choice of BMWs.

They had 6 x 640 grand coupe and one Panamera. Waiting line for Pamanera was almost 1 hr for register on-line customers and for walking in customers even more longer. They don't let me drive anything else - and I was not in the mood to start the fight.

Both me and my wife don't liked seating position in Panamera. For both of us this was first time driving Panamera. Like I sad before - car was not make a good impression of driving ( I strongly believe some one mess up with acceleration). Never drive Kayenne - but if new X5 looks as ugly as latest pictures - for the same price my wife can drive Porshe Kayanne and not ugly duck F15

I just want to clarify. I am (girlfriend) is taking delivery of her ordered 335i on Friday July 12, 2013. After reading the posts if we attend the BMW driving experience just prior to signing the papers and taking delivery we get a credit. The credit is $1,000.00 applied to the price? If this is true I found a dealer hosting the event 100+ miles away which is surely worth the thousand dollars.
