Seems like this deal is back in a limited way:

I just received the following email with an invitation code (so, I assume this is targeted):

Hello FindAWay,
AAdvantage Number: *******

Cadillac shares your passion for travel. That's why you can earn 7,500 American Airlines AAdvantage® miles for simply test-driving the Cadillac CTS, ATS Sedan or ATS Coupe*.

The award-winning ATS Sedan and Coupe are engineered to provide precise, nimble handling with dramatic exterior styling, while the CTS combines a luxurious interior with exceptional performance.

Register today before this limited-time offer takes off.

Invitation Code: ----------------------


*At participating dealers only. Must have an AAdvantage account and be 21 years or older with a valid U.S. driver's license. Employees of General Motors are not eligible. Retail value: $221.00. Test drive lasts approx. 10 minutes. Offer valid through December 31, 2015. Limit one test drive per person. Allow 4-6 weeks for miles to be awarded after confirmation that a test drive has been completed. Offer is nontransferable, nonnegotiable and not redeemable for cash. Offer valid while supplies last.

Just booked in Manhattan. There was something strange with the online appointment scheduler. Every time I went to the next page it advanced my time by an hour (if I chose 2:00, it said I had chosen 3:00). So I went back and chose 1:00, and it became 2:00. But the final confirmation page said 1:00. (Which is still an OK time for me, so I'm not bothering to change it.) So if you get the wrong time on the second screen, you should still end up with the originally chosen time in the confirmation.

I would assume if you got the invitation you would be eligible. I called my dealer and they said you needed the invitation to be eligible. My other local dealer said the offer was for select dealers only and they were not.

Either way I'm out of luck. Hope someone else gets lucky.

I received the offer and signed up. I showed up at the dealership, but the dealer did not know how to complete the process so that the miles would be credited. So I'm stuck in limbo, waiting and hoping that the rep at my local dealercan figure out how to complete this deal and then enter my info.

Does anyone know the web page that the DEALER uses in order to validate that you showed up for the test drive?

DATA POINT:

I was targeted for the offer, scheduled an appointment online, and went to the dealer today. I was honest about my intentions with the sales manager, and he insisted I at least "see the car". I agreed and I overheard the sales manager tell the sales agent "you can make it brief".

We walked to the car, I sat down, pushed the start button and thanked him for his time.

We went back to his office where he copied my driver's license and entered my information into a computer.

I received an instant confirmation email thanking me for my interest and confirming my points will be processed in the next 4-6 weeks.

Data Point

Received the email and booked online for an appointment at a dealership in Dallas. Showed up and they were ready for me. They knew exactly what was up and asked if I wanted to drive or just wanted the miles approval. Waited 5 minutes and was on my way. Confirmation email received shortly thereafter.
