Is there any real difference between having it built in Germany or Mexico? I thought they were all built in Germany. It would seem more authentic that way lol
It's been discussed at length on this forum but it's too early to tell how the defect rate will be between the Mexico plant and the German plant.

My 340i was assembled in the South Africa plant and I had no problems with it. The SA plant actually won awards for having the lowest defect rate (even lower than the Germany plants). My parents had an X3 that was from the Spartanburg plant though and that had a bunch of assembly and fitment issues.

Where will the Mexico plant fall into? Only time will tell.
