Only missing local Manufacturing Component for full standalone Auto Production. Food for thought...Toray Industries, a Tokyo based Carbon Fiber Manufacturer just announced a $1 Billion dollar Plant in Spartanburg County South Carolina ( Same County as South Carolina BMW Plant) Coincidence..... I think not. I realize for now....BMW supplies it's own Carbon Fiber.... Carbon Fiber Supplier in your backyard.....?? For sure stay tuned... Thanks. PalBay
Ok, I'll play...

Its the manufacturing facility for the new BMW and Toyota partnership on the future sports car to be built in the US...remember the Z3 and Z4 were built in Spartanburg.
