Will all 2004 E320 4Matics be built in Graz, Austria?

Will all 2004 E320 4Matics be built in Graz, Austria? Has anyone got one built in Germany yet?

Does anyone know how the build quality at the Germanan vs. Austrian sites compare?

Just curious,

John

to be honest, from what I read about what is going on in the german economy and their labor unions, Austria sounds OK to me.

I was told by my dealer that all 4MATICS start assembly at the factory in Germany and then shipped to Austria for completion of the drivetrain. They are then shipped directly from Austria. That is why it might take a little longer to receive a 4MATIC.
