i did a z4.. you dont have to change the cluster for that. i just had to do DRL + change the digital odometer to kilos. yes bmw charges $500 for a recall letter which is horse shit. i heard they're now charging an extra fee which is around $250-300. all in all you might pay around $1500-2k for all fees involved (riv, 2 inspections, drl+odo, recall........) and then 18.1% on top of the car price if its made outside NA or just gst/pst if its made in NA


^i didnt leave my car at the border... i called customs 72h ahead of time and told them i'd be importing a car... they started the clock and 3 days later i bought and drove the car over.
