I'm signed up for the one in Boston at the end of the month. I was hoping I'd get to drive something but it appears that may not be the case. Oh well, any excuse to not work...

I just checked the site, and I guess you have to be a member to go on the drive. It's okay, isn't the drive for cancer around that time anyway?

It was noted that to go on the drive, you needed to be member. I am signed up for the San diego one. There was not a time listed on the website to pick, so it signed me up for 9 a.m., but the website says drive at noon.

I called them they said there will not be a drive at this event. theres not enough cars to let everyone drive. the Drive is a "follow the E90" kinda drive.. you drive and follow them. There will be a offical "Test drive" of the car in another event later they said. Later like in June or July.

I registed for their night "party" event instead which is for invitation only or for BMW CCA memebers only. I told them to cancel my Afternoon "see and drive" event since I cant drive the car.

Well, I try to give them a call, but if it is a follow the e90, which now that I read the website again states that it is a follow the e90 drive, I think I would be out also, especially during a weekday.
