I leased a new M240i from this dealership. When divining the agreement I was informed by my sales associate that I would receive two days at the BMW s performance driving school in California as part of a promotion they were running ( I didn t even know there was a performance driving school before hearing about it at the dealership). After signing the lease agreement, I was assured by my sales associate that I would receive an invitation in the mail from BMW.

Approx. two months have gone by and I have yet to receive an invitation to BMW s driving school (This two-day course is valued at nearly 3k). Upon taking my car back in for service today, I decided to call BMW s driving school, they referred me to BMW of North America, who then. referred me back to the dealership. I was then informed by the dealership that since I did not lease or purchase a true M car that I was never entitled to anything at all. The sales manager appologized for the mis-understanding and said I would get nothing. I, however, would characterize this situation much more of a mis-leading than a misunderstanding, as I was told by the sales manager that my sales associate has been with the company for over five years and sells lots of this particular model.

I believe that the dealership should have offered more than a Hey, sorry about that in this case. This dealership was very eager to get me into a new- not so eager to follow through on their promises.

In response to the dealer, Inspoke with my sales associate on two separate occasions about this promotion . As I said earlier, I wasn t even aware that there was a performance driving school before the sales associate said I would be able to attend as part of the promo offer for buying/leasing a new car.
