I think BMW was making up the rules as this promotion went along... after all, it started-out as being only for 2009 models on the lot, and then in mid-August morphed into being good for 2010 orders, since people were complaining about "bait and switch," since the average number of X5 diesels on the lot at BMW dealers, at the time, was around 1 per dealer I believe.
In any case, I did my order just before the original deadline of August 31 (deadline #1... we are now up to Deadline #3), and they might have removed the credit requirement by then.
I suppose my dealer could have done a credit check on me for BMW Finance, but I didn't sign anything.
