*full disclosure I haven't really researched to see if there were systemic issues with South African built cars, but knowing BMW has been building cars there for a few years, and the fact that they've had plants in other countries outside Germany successfully building cars, I assume the answer is no.
Funny enough, BMW labels them so in the United States, which I guess it means some people care enough to know they weren't made in Germany. From the looks of 2018 stock though, they stopped importing those models into the US.
