You wanna hear a huge ripoff? How about this:
2008 Escalade
US Model fully loaded with 22" rims, AWD, all the options and accessories with pearlescent paint:
MSRP: USD$59,390
As Speced: USD$70,585
Canadian Model fully loaded with 22" rims, AWD, all the options and accessories with pearlescent paint:
MSRP: CAD$76,960
As Speced: CAD$93,880
Factoring in current FX rate:
1.00CAD = 1.00297USD
MSRP:
MSRP: USD$59,390 * 1.00297 = $59,566.39
MSRP: CAD$76,960
------------------
Difference: $17,393.61
Or a variance of: 29.2%
As Speced:
As Speced: USD$70,585 * 1.00297 = $70,794.64
As Speced: CAD$93,880
-----------------------
Difference: $23,085.36
Or a variance of: 32.6%
OK, it wasn't as bad as the M5, but still HOLY CRAP thats over $20,000 more for the fully loaded one...seriously...that's just ridiculous...
