Yeah, that's prejudice. And bigotry. No one is asking you to buy an inferior product. If the Mexican plant does indeed turn out an inferior product, by all means buy something else. I'd do the same.

Again, what you call prejudice I call educated. My decision has come from many many experiences of being burned by the poor quality overseas equivalent.
Is it possible a BMW car comes off the assembly line in mexico as germany? Sure, but im not will to take that chance. I wouldnt do it with a $1,000 BBQ, or $250 pair of ski gloves, so I sure as hell wouldnt do it with a $100,000 car.
Im prejudice against outsourcing production at the expense of quality control for the sake of bigger margins with zero benefit passed down to the consumer.
Ill vote with my wallet every time.
