My wife and I are picking up a 325 on October 19th in Munich. She is a freelance journalist that writes for many national magazines. She has been putting togeather info for an article on ED and traveling Germany. In the process of the article she was talking to BMW and a PR lady told her that during Jan to March they are changing the promotion to 2 free air tickets!! This may not be unusual since Volvo gives 2 free tickets also(picked up XC last summer in Sweden). Plus this is not a busy travel time and may not be the best time to vacation. Hopefully this info may help someone deciding purchase time.

Damn!! Now that's a f**king deal!! 
Just told the wife this.... she sneared at me and say ".... Nah!! I don't want to go there at that time again!!... Its freaking cold!!!.."
I've been there once in Feb and another at March (not the same year, of course), and airfare for that time of the year is about $380~$430 per person including tax from West Coast.
Looks like MBZ's re entering of ED program is putting pressure on BMWNA, You've gotta love competition
cheers,
beewang

What I mean is ED just sweetens the BMW purchase -- for me personally ED in itself did not sway my choice of a BMW 330CiC over a Saab 9-3 convertible. Likewise, those who are truly in the market for a Volvo may be looking for a notably safe family car that does not have the same sporty or performance reputation as a BMW. My guess is that this is just a mechanism to increase sales over a very cool and dark time of year in Northern Europe.

Actually, in some parts of Europe, February and March are not that bad. I traditionally go home to England in March when the airfare is low. Most tourist attractions don't open until Easter, but the airfare goes up too. After August the airfares drop too, but some of the tourist attractions close in September. I just got back from Copenhagen, Stockholm and Ipswich, England (my hometown), the weather was nice and some of the attractions that I thought were closed were in fact open. I don't plan to do ED until the new delivery center is open (go after the World Cup). But then again, the World Cup might be a good time to go especially if you can get tickets. Otherwise watch the games in some large in a German town. Should be a good party atmosphere.
