Being in the area the BMW plant was a big deal when they announced it. A lot of good jobs there and they have an educational arm as well. They have partnered with Clemson Univ. on the International Center for Automotive Research,

BMW's have been built in NC for 7+ years now, Fords are built in Mexico, Toyota's are built in the US...the list goes on and on......

PS: Toyota creates more 'American jobs' then most other companies in the country.
I knew about trash being done in Mexico and Japan... but the 3 and 5 series are still made in germany...
