Thanks for the link. Although I'm buying my 535 here in Germany I can't pick it up from the factory. It did have info on having a guided tour.

You are right, but also there are some other local assembly plants, like here in Egypt. BMW produces the 320i, 523i, 525i, 530i, and 740i locally here in Cairo, Egypt.

That's referred to as kitting. Subassemblies are shipped to a remote plant and assembled locally to avoid domestic content laws.
