If this is any indication, for BMW's plant in Greer, SC.

So at $75,000+ per job that South Carolina is buying from Volvo, they are footing the first 2+ years of their payroll. And then there is the tax credits, construction handouts etc. Gloat away South Carolinian's. Saab may be next if they are still around.

Edit: $14 - $15/hour seems to be the starting wages at US based auto plants.
