Canadian saftey standards... so you only get the "regular" rear.

Default 5 mph vs 8 mph......correct me if I am wrong but the US and europe only require rear bumpers

that can withstand 5 mph impacts...here in Canada we require 8 mph rear bumpers....actually the same applies to the front bumper...compare a US spec TT to a Canadian spec TT...our TTs have added bumper strips....i think Canadian spec A4s with the ultrasport package are somewhat unique...yes the US/Euro rear bumpers look cool but its the whole package that appeals to me...hence my choice of a 2004 Dolphin Gray 1.8T with ultrasport package....taking delivery this month....
