Z8-er's Did You Get The Letter?
I just received a letter from BMW offering me a free special Z8 accessory personalized for my vehicle. I have to send a card back confirming that I am still the owner of the car. Anyone else get this? They are watching us.....

Probably because 50 grand separates the MSRP between the M5 and the Z8.

Probably a Z8 keychain that cost BMW about .02 cents because it was made by kids in sweat shops within third world countries.

Seriously, I'm wonder what those "gifts" are.

It's the holy grail in the mail
I believe it's the renowned BMWZ8 leather bound book offered to Z8 owners (eat your hearts out, M5guys).

Atomic80, we deserve special gifts considering the purchase price.

DrRob: That's what I figured...when we went to the M5 Driving Experience, they just kept on pouring those free gifts on us! Did you guys also get those "gifts" too at the Z8 driving experience too?

MJ,
yes I got it!

I think this is the much rumored leather bound book that will feature our VIN and will have pictures of OUR SPECIFIC CAR being made! Or maybe its something else.

FYI- there was also talk of them sending out replacement emblems for the Z8 between the seats that had our initials on them but that was disregarded.

Btw-- I love how they put your name, address and VIN on a post card so all the world can see where you live and that you have a very expensive car! $0.34 cures that.
