Adding a GLC to the e fleet, anyone else

My ride is an E250. Wife wants to unload the Lexus RX for a GLC. Anyone else have an E & GLC Combo in their garage ? Probably will order as I am not able to locate the color and options wanted

GLC is a nice looking car but the thing I don't like at all is what I saw at my dealer show room. It was made in MEXICO!

I was thinking about GLC, but only with diesel. Seems we might not have good diesels coming for few years, so now would be good time to grab used one.
But fact is that off-road driving is no longer our desire and I have Dually for camping, while SUV bring less comfort than sedans.
The car can't be made in Mexico.
It can be assembled in Mexico as engines so far always come from Germany, wheels from Czech, or Poland, electronics from France or Thailand and going and going.
Some rumors say MB opened a plant in China.

A car is made where it is put together no matter where the parts come from.

We don't have a GLC -- wife loved the GLK shape, so we bought both the GLK350 and the E400 the same week. The GLK is fine for small package runs, but it certainly is not a big hauler. We do like the 3.5l over any of the I4 options, though.
