Don't make this $500 mistake

As a long time BMWCCA member one of the benefits is a rebate on a new vehicle purchase. I've taken advantage of this twice before. Recently I purchased an X1 with the same intention. On the way to the dealer to pick up the car we decided to put the car in my wife's name. After all it's going to be her car so why not. Well no sooner do we get home with the car and I go to fill out the paperwork for the rebate. My stomach sinks as I read the paperwork. She is not a member. I scramble and sign her up as an associate to my account and I submit anyway. Well after three weeks today I got a letter from BMWCCA. Declined as she was not an associate for the requisite 1 year. Nobodies fault but mine. Hope you don't make this same costly mistake.
