Not sure I agree here. The price of cars in our local market are based on our local market. Exchange rate is not a huge factor in the pricing strategy.

When I bought my M4 back in 2014 when the CAD was at parity with the USD, it was shockingly expensive when factoring exchange rate with the US. They did not drop the price due to the high CAD. Way back in 2001, when I bought my first M3 (an E46), they had me sign a waiver (not sure how much legal value that had ) that I would not re-sell it in the US because it was so dramatically cheaper in Canada when considering exchange rate.
