2010 C300 country of origin?

I just purchased a 2010 C300 and notice the county of origin is South Africa not Germany.
Did I get an odd bird car or are there a lot of C300's coming in from SA for the US market?

I am in the USA and my 2010 C300 Sport 6 speed m/t VIN starts with a W.
Check out this for how to interpret VIN's

i am new here. I really like the C300 Sport look of 2011. But when i went to dealer, i was told that C250 is replacing c300 now. And they are bascially the same.
I kind feel the C250 sport 2012 is little shorter than 2011 C300 in the front. But not quite sure. Overall i like the look of C300 more.
i want to ask do they look the same or is just i am biased?
I am really stuck at the appearance right now.
Thanks!
