The pics of the assembly area were sweet. Looked like typical high end German auto manufacturing plant in the handmade section, squeaky clean floors, everything immaculate and organized.

Great article. Thanks.

And, look at those sparkling, efficient facilities! Ah, the Germans. Gotta love em. Now, a GREXIT (German!)--that would be something worth worrying about!
