I'll rest on the solace that BMW Canada has probably the lowest prices of any country for 2-series cars at the moment. Also, we have more leather/trim and wheel choices than most other markets too, based on an M240i configuration. Comparing on the road prices (all taxes and fees included) in Alberta with the U.K., Germany and the US (Texas - to compare low sales tax with Alberta), a comparably equipped M240i with manual transmission is:
88% of the U.K. Price (The relative price there has changed by 10% due to the drop in the £ because of Brexit)
75% of the German price.
85% of the US price.
