Difference? M4 = $499 CAD.

Do I feel pangs of regret? Maybe a little on price but the M4 has a ridiculous viewing area and I feel less cramped in - not quite open face but closest to it with a full face.
I recently got a Scorpion exo-410 and like it after one autox and a gokart session. Light and breaths good. It also does fit glasses very well. Maybe a bit more expensive considering it isn't SA, but I could try it on locally and to me that was worth it.
