Air Filter for 2007-2010 E86 N52 made in Austria by Purolator

According to Wikipedia our X3 were built by Magnastyr in Austria.
I searched high & low for a German Manufactured Air filter, the hengst-catalog seemed the best bet, but prices were awful high on the auction site. The catalog.mahle-aftermarket and catalog.mann-filter country of manufacture seemed unreliable.

I took a risk and ordered a purolator from pepboys and to my delight it was made in Austria

Why not go with an aftermarket one like AFE or K&N?
