Going through the mail today, I recieved a nice little gift from BMW. Encolsed in a big white envelope was a 9 X 5 print of an artist's sketch of what looks like a 5 series sedan. Nice touch from the company, and one of those things that sets BMW apart from the crowd.

The copy of the letter is readable but here's a transcription to make it easier for everyone:

We salute the ultimate driver: you.

Thank you for being a BMW owner, and member of the BMW community.

Only a company that values the independent spirit of its designers and engineers could continue to create vehicles worthy of the title, "The Ultimate Driving Machine." Each new model starts as a vision. Through design sketches and engineering brainstorms, the dream begins to take shape. If it shows promise, the concept is carefully nurtured through years of development, with exacting attention paid to each tiny detail. And eventually, it emerges as BMW's next masterpiece of technology and design.

We are pleased to present you with a gift that reflects our shared enthusiasm: a design sketch of your BMW model. This 9"x12" rendering of the designer's original vision is suitable for framing, and will make a fine addition to any BMW enthusiast's collection. It's also a personal reminder of how, at BMW, we make sure great ideas live on to become Ultimate Driving Machines.
