Sure the US market F30 starts off with a lower price and less standard features than Canada. For the 328 approx ~$9K difference $34K US vs $43K CAN.

But add in some of the features we get std here and most would want, like A line $2100, leather $3600 (part of mandatory premium pkg), xenons $900, heated seats $500 etc. The difference between the two markets is about $2K. Not bad since regardless of our dollar's strength (on par with USD) our market size is tiny in comparison.
