I sent a priority e-mail from the owners section on BMWUSA re: this issue and this is the response I got:

Thank you for contacting BMW of North America, LLC regarding the status of your commemorative Year One of the One BMW 135i Convertible. I want to advise you that your vehicle will be built with the specially engraved Start/Stop button and come with the Commemorative book.

The Commemorative book will come with a replica VIN plate and Certificate of Authenticity. Expect, it to be processed and mailed to you about 8-10 weeks from vehicle delivery.

If you have any further questions, please reply to this e-mail or contact the Customer Relations and Services Department at 1-800-831-1117, Monday through Friday from 9:00 A.M. to 9:00 P.M., Eastern Standard Time. Again, thank you for contacting BMW.

Looks like the 09's get them also. Not sure when it ends though.

You don't get the book with the purchase of your car, it will be sent by post. You might still be receiving it.

I sent another e-mail as to when the "year 1 of the 1" ends, and this is the response I got:

"Thank you for contacting BMW of North America, LLC regarding the status of your commemorative Year One of the One BMW 135i Convertible. The Year One of the One 1 Series will build through the end of February 2009."

I guess they are doing it from March - Feb as to mark one full year of productions as the "Year 1 of the 1." Interesting!

This is like a bonus for me. I like stuff like that: commemorative book and a certificate of authenticity. The "Year one of the 1," is just another aesthetic plus for me.

Production of the '08s started in January so why not end the "Year One of The One" in December?

Well, isn't this a pleasant surprise!?!?! I gotta say, I missed out on ordering the 08 by a week, and was a bit bummed out because I liked the unique touch of the 'One of the 1' ring. Now, I may get the best of both worlds......newer model car plus the ring.
