They just posted the new total production figures and I don't know why the canadian version is listed separately. Gary, I don't follow you on the DRL, please enlighten me.

Larry, forgot about running lights totally and never paid attention to the speedo to see if it had both like most newer cars. Do you think that is the only difference? Beside the window sticker as Larry pointed out.

I'm not sure about other differences but there may be some things having to do with smog also.
What say Tony Goertz? Eh?

For our friends in Quebec, all Canadian cars have English & French warnings stickers. ie the seat belt warnings on the sun visors.
Canadian cars also have a 5mph bumper instead of US 2.5mph - something that would be very useful in - say Texas ! Daytime runnings lights are required and yes the speedometer is in metric (kilometers - so we can go faster in addition to paying more). An optional snow tire is available through DC Canada. ( and skis on the front)
Emissions are the same for all Prowlers ( 99 on)

Here's an e-mail right from the source. I forwarded a similar e-mail question to John Hinckley, and here is his answer on the topic:

Mike Krehel forwarded your message to me in which you described the
compliance work you are doing on a client's Prowler, imported from Canada;
I'm the Plant Manager of DaimlerChrysler's Conner Avenue Assembly Plant,
where the Prowler is built, and I thought I could answer your question.

The Prowler which is built for sale in Canada is identical in every
respect to the U.S. version except for the following unique Canadian features:

1. Canadian version uses a kilo speedometer/odometer instead of miles.
2. Canadian version has the "Daytime Running Lights" feature.
3. Canadian version has unique front and rear bumpers which meet the 5-mph
Canadian test requirement vs. the U.S. 2-1/2-mph test requirement.
4. Numerous stickers and labels are in both English and French in order to
meet the Canadian bi-lingual requirement, vs. the U.S. version's English-only
items.

I hope this meets your needs - if possible, please E-Mail me a photo of
the completed Prowler when you're done so I can share it with our people.

Thanks,

John Hinckley
Plant Manager
Conner Avenue Assembly Plant
DaimlerChrysler Corporation

Tony,

Can you post photo of Cat in winter wear. I would like to see the snow tires and SKI'S on your Prowler.

20 inch snow boots? Get a set for Nyle so that he can make controlled donuts in the snow! Tony, get us a picture of them if you can.

Did anyone mention that the Canadian Prowlers do 0 to 100 in less than 6 seconds while the US ones take that long to get to 60. Must be the air quality!

Do they need bumpers twice as strong due to bad drivers???? Maybe they hit more elk and moose(s) or is that meese(s)?
