Sorry to post after myself, but it's sort of a different subject. If anyone is looking for the FINA short tailed promo car which was only available through BMW dealers, there is one about to sell on Ebay for a very reasonable price:

The last few that I have seen have sold for nearly $300 in this condition. The other BMW promo cars - the #38 & #39 FINA cars - usually sell for about $200.
Good luck if anyone decides to grab it.
