There was an article online from the G+M that states that realistically, at least "border towns" with identical cars should have started adjusting their prices already.
The dealers' excuse is that the selling price is based on previous allocation times (earlier in the year) and the amount they've already been invoiced for the cars.
So what, there are then potentially HOW MANY cars that may never be sold due to the rise in the loonie? I'm not buying that... no pun intended.
If you want new, go States-side. If you don't care about warranty, you're all set. More and more manufacturers are denying warranty coverage on new vehicles purchased in the US, so beware.
