Damn that’s a lot. Sounds like they have a success on their hands. I seen two today, a few minutes after leaving the house. Enjoy it now before the G05 X5 wave hits.

It is now BMW’s largest factory with the completion of the X7 halll.

The impact on the local economy in the upstate of SC has been absolutely HUGE! The construction of the original plant was just after most of the textile industry left the area. The naysayers of an automobile assembly plant have been eating crow for a lot of years. Billions of dollars have been put back into the local economy by this plant. I just hope the current administration does screw things up with the tariff nonsense.

But you're an X4 Guy so you know they're somewhat common

As you seem to know a fair bit about the factory and production, wondering if you know when the MY20 changeover will take place? I know it's usually July-ish. |

This... ^. End of July, first of August is generally when the new model year begins which coincides with the return of Plant Spartanburg associates from a two week summer vacation. We will know the official start of production (SOP) for MY (model year) 2020 come late April to mid-May.

Ours was one of those January builds and we just got back from doing PCD where we saw the X3/4 Hall portion of the plant. It was amazing and the size of the campus overall is staggering.
