There are always exceptions to every rule, but that only proves the rule is true.
Part of the reason you pay a premium for BMW is because its made in Germany. If they out sourced to China or this case Mexico I would expect the price to drop accordingly as I would see less overall value perceived or otherwise.
Drop the cost of a 3er BMW by 30% as a result of moving to mexico and maybe id consider it (actually I still wouldnt), but at least it wouldnt bother me.
