Ever since I was little, I've loved to see pictures of cars in production. These are excellent photos which I admire and adore til the end of time. Simply awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

There is some great info at http://www.bmwusfactory.com on the Spartanburg South Carolina plant.

Here is a link to the paint shop page including a great video on the paint process.

I was in S. Carolina when the factory opened back in 95. What a spectular place; as a car nerd as my friend would say that would be the ideal place to work.

A little puzzled by how proud they seem to be of the guy charging the forklift, but otherwise - great stuff!!
