Wasn't the concern over the SA plant related to extra emissions equipment on the cars made there?

But, admittedly there is a mystique to a car "made in Germany." Despite the fact that so many of the parts are manufactured elsewhere. I thought it was very cool when my 2002 330i (custom order) came from the Munich plant. Now, I don't even remember which plant made my 2.
