where is the north america glc built?

Hi all. Just want to confirm that the glc 43 amg is built in Germany and not usa. I live in Canada and ordered a c43 fully loaded. learnt canada isn’t getting apple carplay on c class and now no heads up display too- so i have cancelled the order. I am thinking part of the issue is with usa built cars. in europe the c class has the command nav premium entertainment AND carplay AND heads up. so does the glc. So thinking to order it instead. Hence the question... rambling explanation over!

When I ordered my GLC43, the initial configuration put together by my AMG Specialist included every package and option - including heads up display. There was not any option specifically for apple CarPlay but this was not a deal breaker for me. I ended up dialling back a bit since I did not want all options (including the HUD) - just really wanted the heated rear seats.. I ordered all the option packages except the night package. The GLC43 is produced in Germany according to my AMG Specialist.

Are there separate factories that make the same car in Germany? Wonder why some are Stuttgart and some are Bremen?
