My Ride: 545i titanium silver, sport package, premium package.
I too want to see what differences exist between our cars and the rest. Don't think too much is different form the US cars though.

If I'm not mistaken one difference is that Canada customers are forced to use DRLs and US customers have a dealer adjustable choice...

Our friends in the states can order the CWP, most of the CWP is standard in our cars (except for headlight washers).

I don't really remember all the differences. Fold-down seats, leather, CWP, km, kph, no 525, DRL, not being considered part of NA by BWM NA.

My Ride: 2006 BMW M5, Silverstone with black extended leather, brushed aluminium trim, Nav Pro, Logic 7, PDC, 35 % tint.
I wonder how many of us are there? Since I have owned my car (one month) I have seen only two other E60's on the road, a 545 and a 530.
I have seen a few E500's, smoked one at a light the other day.
I lived in Edmonton for a year, heli, you probably have the only 545 in the city.
