NEW AMG PURCHASE ... Should I expect a Thank You from MBUSA?

So, I purchased a 2012 C63 last November but have yet to receive a Thank You note or letter of sorts from MBUSA.

Should I be expecting something in the mail? A gift? A Card? ANYTHING?

Don't they send you a thank you every month in the mail

You paid for a car and you have a car. The world doesn't revolve around you.

They will send you a gift everytime you bring it in for service in the form of a very expensive invoice.

My salesman thank me for giving him more than I should have. He also promised AMG goodies (did not ask he just offered) in the mail. (hat, keychain, etc.) Never got any. I do get this 3 seconds of euphoria every time I start the car in the morning.

Thanks for all the replies, albeit sarcastic - funny regardless! Especially the monthly gift! (of all my bills, that's the one I don't mind paying)

I asked because I've seen/heard from other MB owners that they have received gifts in the mail from MBUSA. I too received a nice leather wallet with my last purchase.

Yes
No harm in asking man. When I bought my 09 MB sent me a $100 saks gift card and dealer gave me some AMG stuff. MB thing as a program most people got, the AMG stuff was just the dealer giving it to me. If they still had that AMG academy trip going that would be huge!

MB had record sales last year yeah?
and plans to release a lot more vehicles....
so, yeah, they kind of owe us ALL a thank
you.....
the more you drive your MB, the more it gets exposure and the more
people end up wanting a car that looks as cool, AND protects them as well
as you MB does....



and YES, the driving academy!!

Some people cry too much.


If it happens... it happens.

One should not expect anything in life but if it happens be grateful and happy.

When I picked up my car to sign the papers I told my SR to seal the deal with a CF AMG plate. He ate orange and said k. MBUSA also thanked me with a $100 gift card, dvd, and a booklet. I get a $50 service coupon every few months.

The OP is expecting a $100 SAKS gift card as others used to get. There is no harm in asking if they are still doing it.
