Canadian vs. US Vettes
Hello everyone,
I am getting ready to buy a '01 vert (mag red, oak/oak). However it was built for the Canadian market. I'm wondering if someone could tell me what the differences are between the US and Canadian spec vettes are?
Clear Skies,
Dave in Ohio

Plus the Standard 1SA package in Canada in 2001 is the same as the US version of the 1SC package minus the HUD. If it has the 1SB package then you got the HUD and Changer

Trunk is the big difference
U.S. version = 2 golf bags
Canadian version = 2 bags of hockey gear.
