FWIW BMW NA offered me one of their 1M press cars and told me at the outset that it would not qualify for extended warranty or for Certified Pre Owned regardless of how long I kept it. I passed since I have seen how these cars get used.
Just for curiosity, who gets to sell the press cars and the Performance Driving School cars in the US? They told me at PDC in Spartanburg that when those were sold, their use was definitely disclosed. On a side note, I purchased an BMWNA executive demo in the past. It was available at auction only to BMW dealers and then I purchased it from the dealer as the first owner on the title.
