Here's a question....... I paid for my e60 in December 2004. I picked it up (ED) in Feb. 2005. Redelivered in April 2005. When would you think my "First year is ree" would end for BMW Assist?

Certainly for 08 cars you get three years assist included. Also 3 years connected.
Correct, 3 years included and connected in the US, just extra for the concierge service.....
