Can anyone tell me how we get in for the early preview? I just renewed my membership (I let it end when I had my X5) so I don't have any details how to do this. Can I bring a friend or does anyone who enters early need to be a BMWCCA member? Thanks...

I have a feeling this thread is running interference with another event scheduled for the same day, because someone :wink: is too lazy to drive his butt to Weehawken :whistle: which brings me to my next point - there is no privilidged entrance for BMW CCA members - I'm a member, no invite. Or must you be, like, that premium member or whatnot? Cuz I know that there are a few "premium members" 'round here fo sho :lol: :lol:

You just buy your tickets for the show online and then on the morning of, show your BMWCCA card and you're in. BMWCCA's site should tell you too. It's freakin' awesome. It's the only way to see the show. When the public is there, it's just too much. Plus, you get to listen to BMW speak about the new models just to the members and nobody else. You can ask questions and sit inside all models. And after you're done, you get to roam the entire show with yourself and nobody else. It's a huge plus if you're a BMWCCA member. Last year, Lomag, Pennetta, brit_in_nj, poleposition and I were all there with our families. It was great.

Mark - Call me on cell as the date gets closer and we'll coordinate.

BTW - I don't suggest bringing the M down there. Parking is god awful, the lots charge $50+ and could give to craps about your car. I watched them door ding people and have cars bumper to bumper, literally. I had the X5 last year and wasn't thrilled. I might do the Durango this year. They can door ding it and back my bumper into whatever car they want. I don't care. Hahahaha!

It's not an invite ding bat :P. You buy your tix online in advance, show up the morning of at 8:15/8:30 with your BMWCCA card and you're in. It's that simple. Check out Pennetta's thread from last year. It's really very simple.

Thanks C. I didn't plan on taking the M. I've tried parking around there in the past. The double lift parking areas crack me up. Never again. I usually drive to Stamford then take the train from there when I go into the city. Then it's 100% foot power... :P

PM me your cell. I'll give you a call...

Does anyone know that if you are a BMWCCA member and you want to bring your significant other and a friend, will BMWCCA allow them to go in early with the other members to view the BMW preview / tour at 8:30am at Jacob Javits?

Yes Mike. 1 member's card is good for your whole party
