Yeah, the BMW club I belong to held its Christmas party at the Zentrum (which is the visitor's center at the plant) the past two years, and it is really a cool place! And yes, Rob, they have quite a few Beemers on display throughout the building! I toured the plant in 1996 when they had just begun assembling the Z3 roadster there. Since then, the plant has grown to almost twice its original size (and it was pretty damn big in 1996, too), and now employs around 8,000 people. If you are ever in upstate SC, you should at least stop and visit the Zentrum, if you can't do a tour of the plant. (They have a neat gift shop and a cafe in the Zentrum, too!) [smiley=thumbsup.gif]
