GOOD! I booked mine today as well.

I'll tell you - I've spoken with three diferent people and gotten three different rates. My room came out to 146.00 Euro per night for a double with breakfast included. They told me there is no such thing as a 95.00 Euro room, but 535D Sport got three of them!! One person quoted me 109.00 Euro, another 115 Euro and yet later they quoted me 119.00 Euro. Smoking weed must be legal in that part of Germany...

There must be different kinds of rooms and whether breakfast is included or not jacks up the prices as well.

Anyway, we now have 9 people commited/confirmed from 45 on the list.

It's going to be great!

Room booked for Ats and wife, double w breakfast for two nights, 148 ?.
Gracias Santiago!

We still have 45 signed up, but only a few of us have actually made reservations at the hotel.

So the answer to your question is: We have 13 people right now:
Me and guests
535D Sport and guests
ats77 and guests
Berlin.BMER
big_ipaq
bobr2001
skorpyo25

The longer people wait, the lesser the chance of finding space at the hotel. They do advertise having 148 rooms.

Another thing - several of you are coming alone - let me know if you'd consider sharing a room or if you'd rather take a single room. The hotels is still screwing with the rates. I don't think there are two of us who have the same rate. 95 Euro with breakfast for a single is the best rate yet - though one person at the hotel told me "that rate does not exist" - yeah, right... I've seen the confirmation.

I should hear from BMW on Monday about locking the 19th for the factory tour. Remember that my contact has been on vacation and hasn't yet read my message picking the 19th. I hope it is still OK for that day.

Cheers!

Yes, I remember now. I had not counted Thebe and Mrs. Thebe . So we have 16 people reserved then, possibly 17.

We're movin' now!!

When we get to about 25 reserved, I'll start looking at the Chiemsee or Garmisch areas for Thursday/Friday- any particular preference from you guys??

And still no word from BMW Munich.

Attendance Roster as of today - January 7th, 2006

There are a few holes to plug in still. Look at the list, and if you owe me something - name, car type, city/country of origin, topic, etc., please update. PM me if you wish. Also verify that I have your data correctly to include number of guests.

Remember enter a car type ONLY if you're bringing or renting one (an E60 preferably ). BMW will reserve parking for us.

Regards,
Santiago

Sorry, just realized that NO means no, and blank means you already got it.

Sorry...

Honestly there's no need for you to wait. Registering to the hotel site, allowed me to book without a credit card, plus the cancelling is very easy and you can do it until 18.07.2006, with no penalties.

Why wait?
