Thats Quebec - you know they are expensive :-)
2012 Like mine fully loaded, main dealer, $51,669 at the current exchange rate = £27500
2012 Mercedes-Benz SLK-Class SLK350 for $51,669 in Oakville | autoTRADER.ca
UK
Mercedes-Benz SLK350 BLUEEFFICIENCY AMG Sport 3.5 2dr
£32495 = $61090
Ok 18% more expensive!
Of course the difference is smaller the older they get, and in the US they are about the same price in USD as CAD so significantly cheaper (CAD/USD =1.2)
Either way is personal choice for the owner regardless of our sparring :-)

Re: car importing?
Yea but my point was that its not worth it with all the extra costs and aggro and the steering wheel is still on the wrong side unless it was a rare classic with sentimental value.
Did look into taking mine and even though we would spend months in Spain and France still not worth it.
