Nice car, unrelated but I think interesting, my son works at BMW here in South Carolina, he went from an X1 to an X3.
Darn good company, very impressive assembly line, attention to detail etc.
But most striking, what most people dont know, they are in their now, something like, 5th expansion, each expansion something like 700 million to a billion dollars.
Anyway, right now they are building 1,200 cars a day in South Carolina of which 70% of them are for export, expansion should add another 300. (everything rough numbers)
What is interesting is, BMW is the LARGEST EXPORTER OF AUTOMOBILES IN THE UNITED STATES.
They show the American worker can compete. Great company to work for. Producing products is the only way to keep a country and its economy on tract and growing. The contribution of all the jobs and related jobs to the industry in the upstate area of SC is evident.
BMW as well as some other companies show it can be done.
