Which means in Canada it is still $65K! The exchange rate can not be used to determine product value in the country in which an item is being sold. If paid for in US dollars here you would still have to buy the dollars at that rate so the value of the car remains the same.

Just two years ago the Canadian dollar was stronger than the US so the car would have cost $70K US if applying the exchange rate. The value of the product has not changed just the value of the currency.


When something is being sold for a certain value here just forget about exchange rate and consider it as the same price as there.

All that because an American asked for a currency conversion?

Yep!
Did you manage to read that as angry or confrontational in some manner?
It is important to me that people understand that exchange does not reflect value or price.

I don't know how many times I've read your explanation of this. Yet I finally understand it now.

I read everything on the internet as angry, confrontational, and/or condescending.
