So are you telling me that a Canadian looking for an M3 will pay thousands more for a lesser car just to have different numbers on the speedo (That's the only difference between the cars). I find this very hard to believe. I think this argument is used by those that sell BMW's in Canada to scare customers into buying their cars up here.
I have bought and sold US cars many times and have friends/dealers in the business.

You may break even with your deal but many won't. The point I'm trying to make is that it may look like a great savings initially but come resale you take the hit. It happens and is not BS. Talk to some people who have tried to sell their US cars.
