Here is an interesting story from my Seeking Alpha feed along the lines of your concern
GM continues to vacillate over Aussie operations.
GM ( GM) hasn't yet decided whether to end production in Australia after 2016, the carmaker said today as it kept up the pressure on the country's government to provide more aid to the industry. The comments are in contrast to a report on Sunday that said that GM planned to halt manufacturing in Australia, where the company has been hit by the strong Aussie dollar.
"Devereux said it cost $3,750 more to build a car in Australia than at GM's other plants in Asia, and that gap would have to shrink with the help of government assistance and further cost-cutting in order to keep the operations open."
