Default Canadian Car vs. US Car Prices

Ridiculous :canada: is getting ripped

Get this:

S2000 = 32k USD/49k CDN MSRP = yet the conversion of 32k US is only 37k CDN, so 12K more

E46 M3 = 49k USD/75k CDN MSRP = conversion of 49k US is 56k or so US, so 19k more

I was at Infiniti earlier looking at a 06' G35C and it came out to 60k CDN, roughly 51k USD! An 05' S2 is roughly 50k USD!

These prices are before our insane 15% tax rates! h:

oh wait, we get the Acura EL/CSX and they won't let the Evolution in because of unsafe bumper regulations.

I think I posted something similar before, but it wasn't as bad.

.863103 CDN = 1.000 USD

I know half a dozen people who bought cars in Michigan...
