No BMWCCA rebate
Just got this from BMWCCA on M235i
This car is not included in the rebate program. Thanks, Tricia Jones BMW CCA Too bad. I was hoping for the usual $500 rebate. |

This pisses me off, I've had a continuous membership for 8+ years, and was expecting to finally get a rebate when I purchased my next car.

Loyalty programs may not be available the month you buy. Seems ridiculous to me, but BMW only wants to reward you for loyalty when Audi or Mercedes stand to steal you away during the month of whatever.

if you plan on buying one 12 months from now, you should. I don't recall in the past 15 years I've been a member where they didn't eventually include a car. I've gotten over $2000 back so far and spent $400 in membership fees. With the 2nd $500 I used most of that money to become a life time member (back then $299). Now I don't have to worry about having been a member in good standing for min. 12 months
also when the 335d first came out in the US, it wasn't included in the rebate. About 6 or 9 months later it was included and they allowed people who bought it previously to apply for and get the rebate (within a time limit). |

Email to Corporate
Hey fellas, this is the email that I wrote to Corporate NA. Please send yours as well and maybe it will make a difference.
customerrelations@bmwusa.com >>>>> Greetings! As a long time, and loyal BMW owner and shareholder, my family is very enthusiastic about BMW products and services. We own only BMW automobiles and currently have 4 in the household (2014 M235i, 2011 X5 5.0, 2011 335i, 2008 e90 M3). We just took delivery of a 2014 M235i on March 26. As a BMWCCA member, I was looking forward to the BMWCCA rebate only to find that the 2014 M235i is not listed on the rebate form. Can you please add this car to the list? It would be very disappointing to find that this car was not available for BMW club member's as a benefit/reward. The M235 represents a car for the enthusiast core of your customer base. Those enthusiasts, like our family, really appreciate the benefit of this reward, and somehow it feels like BMW is turning away from the very group that ardently supports BMW products and services and dampens our enthusiasm when some cars are on the list, yet the one(s) we are most excited about are taken away... a business decision to take away such a great benefit from those customers who are the most enthusiastic about your product seems counter intuitive. Thank you for building such great and safe automobiles! Steve

Apparently the 235i is now eligible for the $500 rebate but only for cars purchased on or after June 3. Thanks for shafting loyal members who purchased prior to that. JB

Yea, I know BMW decides. Still doesn't change the fact that we are shafted.

BMWCCA on the other hand really does hope you remain a member. It's not their fault BMWNA can be pricks about rebates. |

BMWNA knows only loyal CC members can get a rebate (at least 365 continuous days of membership). So they knew loyal members would be affected by not allowing the rebate initially.
