Yep, I received similar a while back. Corvette (NOT GM) have a marketing program on par with BMW - classy. Certain dealers (Kerbeck - NJ) then send cookies, cards and follow up on the buying experience. Uncommonly gratifying.

GM would not send me anything after numerous requests.

Tried several times and even after numerous requests GM would not send me one even with my Third corvette, a new 2012 Grand Sport. I have asked the Dealer and Saleman several times to no avail.

Do they randomly select the ones that will receive this? I am on my 3rd new C6, and never received one either. Just bought a 427 about a month ago.

Not 100% sure, but I have heard that the selling dealer needs to request it through GM in order for you to get it. I guess they need to send some form back to GM.

So, if the selling dealership drops the ball ... GM has no idea that you are home waiting for something nice to come in the mail.
