EA giving away another BMW M3

EA giving away another BMW M3

During E3 2009, Electronic Arts was promoting Need for Speed SHIFT with a juicy BMW M3 giveaway. Turns out a gentleman in Los Angeles won that one.

If you missed out on the first giveaway, EA is offering another chance to win this high-end vehicle: via Twitter. Yes, you heard right; EA is giving away a 2010 BMW M3 and other prizes through Twitter. But that's not the entire story. This isn't just another little Twitter giveaway where all you need to do is RT or guess a simple question.

Going on right now on @NeedforSpeed are various challenges that participates need to fulfill. Each day, five "missions" will be posted on the Twitter account, and those who achieve the challenges first will win a prize, be it concert tickets, copies of Need for Speed SHIFT, Xbox 360 console with racing wheel, or a brand new 2010 BMW M3. You'll need to follow the NFS account and follow the daily instructions.

If you really refuse to join Twitter, you can also send your email address to nfsm3missions@ea.com each day of the Sweepstakes Period. You just need to be 18 years or older and a United States resident. Full details can be found at the official M3 contest page.
