Canadian models are pretty much the same trim level wise. Like you said, you have rev-matching...its a sport. If you also have the factory nav screen in place of the upper cubby, then you have a Sport Touring.

There are some differences with Canadian models (pretty much all positive) that have nothing to do with trim level, even base Canadian models have these features:

1. Functional rear fog light from the factory controlled from your left steering stalk. All American models from all years, regardless of trim level lack this and just have a dummy reflector instead.

2. Extra anti-corrosion coating applied in the engine bay from the factory. This looks like a waxy coating on the sheet metal, especially noticeable in the areas around the strut towers. Be careful not to think its dirt or something and try to remove it. All American models lack this anti-corrosion coating.

3. All Canadian models come with an engine block heater. American models do not.

4. All American models come with front and rear mudguards. Canadian models do not, they have to be purchased as an accessory from the dealership. Highly recommend you get them.

5. And finally and most obvious, all the gauges are in metric units.


You will notice a common theme here. Nissan seems to think all of the US has the climate of Arizona and Nevada.
