This thread is not supposed to be turned into a political discussion. For politics, feel free to post in the

However, exceptionally, IMHO it is appropriate to make the following remark: it is saddening and disappointing to read comments in this thread reflecting low esteem, prejudice and lack of respect for/about Mexico and its people. Shame on you. Respect is a core value.
For the record: during the second half of last century, Leipzig was part of the German Democratic Republic (D.D.R.
aka East Germany), which was part of Comecon (an economic organization from 1949 to 1991 under the leadership of the Soviet Union). As we all know, after the fall of the Soviet Union and communist rule in Eastern Europe, Germany got reunified (1990). Ever since, Leipzig flourished in many ways (and it continues to flourish).
BMW built a state-of-the-art factory in Leipzig: the Leipzig plant, building BMW cars since 2005, including the F87 M2 nowadays. With all the R&D, infrastructure, tools, materials, protocols, formation, support, maintenance, quality control, etc. the Leipzig workforce undoubtedly gives its level best to
deliver, day after day, car after car, like their colleagues in other BMW plants worldwide do.
BMW recently built a state-of-the-art factory in Mexico: the San Luis Potosí plant, building the new BMW 3er this year.
So ask yourself: as the proof of the pudding is in the eating, isn't it outright unfair to assume that the workforce at the BMW San Luis Potosí plant won't manage to
deliver like their colleagues in other BMW plants do ?
Everyone's entitled to a fair chance.
