There are not masses of China WLs sitting at Holden. They do build up in numbers, but that happens when you're waiting for a ship to put them on. Also, if the ship docks and you've previously told them your putting X amount of cars on, but you haven't built enough, you still pay for X amount of space. So, it makes sense to make sure you have them ready. This last weekend the banks of WLs emptied.

Furthermore, another variant of the China WL has started production. Its fitted with different alloys, and a body kit similar to the Grange. I haven't seen any with the alloys or kit yet, just steelies and unfinished bumper facias. As with all China WLs you can have them in any colour you want as long as its black.
So, I find it impossible to believe there is no China market when another variant has been added.

Also, engine capacities are 2.8, or 3.6. There are no 3.2 China WLs
