[@anthonyangel3109]

twotailedavenger even the ones not built in Mexico like BMW which are mainly assembled in Virginia are much worse in quality than the original European ones. I think it’s because the workers in the US and in Mexico don’t have the same level of nationalistic pride in their work like the actual German engineers in Europe do, since they aren’t German.
