Currently there is no Ferrari that is built in China and no Porsche being built in Vietnam...yet
I doubt that will ever happen to Ferrari as their market positioning requires them to be exclusive in every aspect. Made in China goes against that positioning. In fact the market in China demands that Ferrari are to be made in Italy and Porsche GT cars are to be made in Germany. They are buying the allusion of opulence, technology is secondary.
In every Asian market, people psychologically want anything that they buy with a foreign brand name to be made overseas (not in China or SE, Japan is good), let alone a luxurious product. Imagine a Patek Philippe being made in China or Vietnam? Just not going to happen
