Interesting (although probably not that surprising). Would have been cool if they built the wagon there instead Lol.

Don't mind that and not really surprised either. QC will probably be better in South Africa or Germany anyways. .

They make the US coupes in Germany, so it might make sense to move the sedan back to Germany. That would also make them available for European Delivery again. On the other hand, South Africa seems to have been the overflow plant for the US plant as once in a while US dealers get sedans from South Africa already.
