We took delivery last July and still haven't received the book. I contacted BMW about this and was told the order was resubmitted and that I should receive it in about 6 weeks. It's now been about 8 weeks and nothing yet, so time for a followup.

I took delivery last April and never got the book. I figured it was too late to complain. Maybe not.

They make them specific to every car. They are individually numbers with your VIN and options. I assume they make 'em in batches too. Mine came close to 3 months after I got my car, and I'm in Mass.

oh i have...the dealership sent BMWNA the wrong persons info instead of mine, and finally in December got it right...now my order with the company that makes the books is pending. they only make the books with an order of 500 from BMWNA, so until that many 1ers are sold, i just have to wait...

Update

As mentioned above we took delivery in July '08 and never received the book. Got in touch with BMW customer service. Latest update is that the book was supposedly completed and mailed in December but to the wrong address, two houses up the street but those people deny seeing it. So now the address has been corrected but the 4 to 6 week clock resets. Frustrating.
