[lufeco]

So, in order to enter all I have to do is type 5 words or more?? I think I'm in :D

[SJAPoc]

Just re-read contest rules that explicitly state that each entry should be in the form of an essay of at east 1,000 words double spaced on 8.5" x 14' legal sized yellow ruled paper stating in painful detail why YOU should be picked to sit next to the venerable Donnie Isley (applause for a great driver, please) as he drives you at breakneck speeds around the track. YOU must include in your essay the exact number of gear shifts (mine was 143) that Donnie would do for single complete lap around the track.

Just wondering if all you guys (and girls) complied?

Best to all....

The winner of this contest :angel:

[iznogoud]

This is going to be an excellent thread, I can tell!

[1994_RX-7_Tour]

Is this a great country or WHAT? Awesome Idea! I'm in!

[Brighty]

I bought my first BMW in 2002 (2003 330 Ci) and thought I had the ulimate driving machine. Two weeks ago, I traded her in...for the 335 Conv and WOW, now I really have the ultimate driving machine. Nothing could be improved, in my opinion, on this car. Thank you BMW.

I picked my first car up at the Performance Center and had the thrill of a lifetime. My 335 was sitting on the dealership lot so I didn't have the option to do the Performance Center delivery again (oh sure, you wanted me to wait a few months for a new one when this one was perfect for me? Get real.) so winning this contest would be an awesome thrill to recapture the fun I had with my first BMW delivery... and more.

Thank you BMW and Bimmerfest.

[Ucla95]

Good luck to no one but me ;)

[CliffyDeuce]

Count me in as well
