What do you think Canadian dealers will charge? Dollar is below par this week. I think it could go either way so long as the BOC doesn't keep dropping rates.

My guess is that Canadian will get bent over for an extra $500.

Interesting. Been following the news on this for a while.

Do all BMW dealers offer Dinan products or is it only certain ones?

So the Calgary dealer won't get the software until after Christmas. Price TBA. haha. I don't understand why software, which can be downloaded, takes longer in Canada. Unless of course there is a new special tool that needs to be released.

I thought BMW discontinued their exclusive relationship with Dinan and now carry their own BMW-branded aftermarket parts. So I would not expect BMW dealers here to have any.

Budd's BMW in Oakville is a Dinan dealer....

There is a special download computer but they may have it already.

I just think due to demand being low in Cdn right now we get the product is say the second release.

I'd be pissed if it was $500 more. Come on, the dollar is at par. They should just make it the same.

I am sure it is negotiable. Colin at BMW Calgary is a nice guy, see if he work something out. YOu can always come up to E-town.

$2000 for the reflash in the US? That's crazy...

Wait a little may not be a bad thing. It's winter now and you can't drive fast anyways. Let them get the bugs out first.

From the numbers the Dinan puts our strong power with a pretty decent bump across the board on torque.

For those who care about the warranty it is a good option.

I agree the $$ is high, but there are cheaper options, just no warranty. That is just the way it is.
