And a little known fact - the Hover Dam was built during the depression in the 1930's, a far worse economy than today. Yeah, but we Americans suck.
But data on X3's being built in US is recent. I can be mistaken with my reasoning, and it could be that the quality of BMW's in general is just falling due to bad management... but it's definitely falling.
