This documentary allows you to take a behind-the-scenes tour of BMW's high-tech and innovative manufacturing plant.

Located in Spartanburg County, South Carolina, there lies a small piece of Germany. 500 robots and 4,500 humans work together with engines shipped over from Europe to produce BMW's high performance Z4 Roadster. More than 100 Z4's are built by this plant every single day, and every Z4 on our roads today now comes from this powerhouse.

Find out what goes on inside this ultimate American factory and what it takes to create the sleek and stylish Z4 Roadster.
