It cost more here and less discount.
We get more standard features that are options in US but we have less configurations.
Overall, especially now $cdn is close to par of US, the Euro is in the toilet as well, our cars just seem stupidly expensive.
In Calgary, it's basically a monopoly so you get 0 discount. They give it to you @ MSRP and upsale a bunch of stuff and make it like they are doing you a favor.

Ya LEDs are our daylight running lights in Canada, not a bad thing as they really cool.

I'm not talking about the daytime LED's, What I meant was do the main xenons come on automatically when it senses low light? Is this standard option? I read somewhere that on US models you have to turn the switch to the "On" position on the standard model trim. Is this the same on Canadian? Also, are adaptive headlights only on the Premium trim in Canada? Can any Canadians here confirm either?

Canadian standard S4s have an auto setting on the light switch, which will turn on the xenons under low light conditions.
Adaptive headlight is on the Premium trim

Glenmore Audi is a joke. All I could get is Audi care and winter floor mats thrown in. The same people own Royal Oak so it is a monopoly.The service is terrible and my SA gave out false information all the time. Was forced into paying for mud flaps and wheel locks. Found the same guy that they get to do there 3m protection for half price. etc. Wondering if Royal oak is any better? Anyone?

I got mine from Royal Oak since I'm in the North. You actually got winter mat and I didn't, otherwise it's exactly the same. But I didn't asked for it because I know I'm going Weathertech.
For tint and 3M, I'm going to Tinting Illusion. Who is doing yours?

I forget what they are called. Is what happened is I called and told them that I didn't want them to put it on before I picked it up because I had got a better quote. Later got a call saying that they would match the price so they put it on before I picked it up. Something like Thompson tint? Can't remember but he contracts for a few dealerships. Forgot about asking for a roof rack as well. I will check the price when I get a chance to look it up. Something like $350 for front and mirrors. Looks great! Not going for tint
