Not necessarily, all of the big 3 German manufacturers have US plants.
Unfortunately, BMW only has the one plant at Spartanburg and that only produces the X models (excluding the iX). So if you test drove one of those, it might be OK, but if you test drove one of non-X models, yeah it’s going up.
Of course I also don’t know if this is all new registrations or if cars already imported to the country are exempt, etc.
It’s not only the final assembly but also all parts.
Nearly half of all vehicles sold in the United States are imported, as well as nearly 60 percent of the parts in vehicles assembled in the United States.
I don’t know if I’ll buy it or lease it (ive driven maybe 3000 miles in the past year), or get it at all since it’s pretty damn spendy anyway. But I’ll at least try it out.
As far as I can tell, that’s not a thing on this car. If I’m wrong I’m not getting it. There’s a whole shitload of minor inconveniences I’m not gonna put up with for a $60k car.
Ok so does that mean the BMW i am going to test drive this weekend just went up 25%?
Because that’s a fucking deal breaker

Oh then there’s not going to be a single US made vehicle, is there? They’ll all need SOME components from outside the US.
The car has already been imported and these tariffs aren’t in effect. Of course shady dealer can try and get you to pay overs.
See this is why I asked, someone would comfort me.
Just make sure you buy one in inventory.
Yep it is.

Just wait a week.
I bet the blinker package bumps the price by about as much, just pass on it this time 😉
Ah, so that IS additional. I assumed you had to pay for a semester long course in activating a turn signal, your explanation makes a lot more sense.
Enjoy your subscription seat heater.
