One of the 5 people inquiring about my BMW 330ci stated: "any model whose VIN starts with a '1' through a '4' are made in the US, Canada, or Mexico, and that includes several different kinds of models.. some 3 series, most Z3's and Z4's, etc." Are there 3 series made in the U.S.?

Even the X3 was EU made.

Z3s, Z4s, and X5s are ONLY made in the US. No exceptions (I haven't even heard of any knock down kits for certain markets).
To the OP...they have a point...what are the first 7 digits of you VIN?

He's in Canada and he would have to pay some sort of import tax if the car was manufactured in Germany. The buyer is looking for a U.S. manufactured 3-series.
