i disagree completely. night vision, for example, means simply adding a camera and different software in the iDrive system, that's it. i do not believe the manufacturing location has anything to do with this or other features. rather, it's the morons who control the business/marketing side of their business.... bmw is a company of GREAT engineers and ridiculous business folks.
