The Bimmerfest European Delivery Sign-In Book (aka 'das Buch')
The Bimmerfest European Delivery Sign in book, also known as 'das buch' is a long standing tradition started by Bimmerfest members when European deliveries were still done at the old Freimann facility. With the opening of The Welt I decided that a nice hardbound book was in order to start the tradition anew at the Welt.
Of course, since I was the first customer to take delivery of a new car at the Welt, I was also the first person to sign the book. Beewang was the second person to sign the book. By and large, the Welt's staff were new to European Delivery (the only person who moved over from Freimann, AFAIK, was Bernhard Hausmaninger) so I explained to them what Bimmerfest was etc. and they immediately placed my book in a place of honor at the point of where people stop upon entering the area adjacent to the Premium Lounge. Upon arriving at the Premium Lounge, Bimmerfest members should simply sign das Buch in whatever manner they deem appropriate. If for some reason das Buch is not immediately visible, I'm sure that one of the friendly staff members will be happy to locate it.

Books
My wife loves books... this might be just the ticket to finally allow me to enjoy my "M3 Dream".... actually it's looking more like a 335i in a year or two.
I guess I could live with that....

Looking forward to sign the book soon!
Hello All,
I have been reading up on the vast amount of really helpful information on Bimmerfest for a few weeks now. However, it's my first post, since you guys have done such an excellent job in discussing everything so well, so didn't find the need to post any questions yet..I know questions will start cropping up as I finalize my trip plans. Thanks to Desiboy, Philippe Kahn and all the wonderful bimmerfesters, my 328 xi European Delivery is scheduled for May 16th. I am really looking forward to getting there and signing the Book! Car Details: 328 xi Sedan, Titanium Silver, Black interiors, Premium, Sports and Cold Package, iPod Adapter. Last edited by liplop; 04-14-2008 at 03:06 PM. Reason: Want to add icons
