 BMW plans to invest a further $270 Million to expand its U.S. operations. BMW also reaffirmed on Friday it is investing $750 million to expand production capacity in its U.S. plant in Spartanburg, South Carolina., where it will eventually assemble its X3, X5 and X6 range of sports utility vehicles.

By 2012, the plant will be able to build 240,000 units as opposed to the current 160,000.

 We wonder if they would change their minds and come to Canada if they knew 20 to 30% of those Beamers probably were imported to Canada.

Ok BUZZ and the boys you should be out there trying to convince Harper to throw more money at BMW to convince them to build the cars in Canada!
