Canada VS US Spec M4?

In the USA looking at buying a 2015 M4 that was previosuly from Ontario. Does anyone know of the differences in the US VS Canada cars besides the gauge clusters?

I believe the winter package is optional in the US and in Canada it's standard equipment.

TPMS for tire pressure in US cars versus differential in tire rotation speed in Canada. This can be changed and coded to whichever version you want.

Sorry I meant why buy from Canada instead of US, if you're in the US. Ontario car would have seen quite a bit of snow versus US, depending on where you are? Plus from my understanding, I thought maintenance is not covered in the US?

I thought the Canadian versions lacked the TPMS receiving hardware?

We don’t have the physical device in the wheel, but if added and proper coding done, you can get the same setup as the USA.

That's good to know. I bought my winters from TireRack and they came with TMPS sensors installed. Once I get around to replacing my stock summers I'll get the coding done. I have TPMS in my Macan and I like the feature.
