I bet they'll be very surprised.
Do you think those potential US 50d buyers could afford to pay for the federalization of an all new engine, amortized over that small batch? US buyers aren't paying world prices to start. The 50d is priced at the equivalent of $95,800 US in the UK. Even the 40d M Sport is the equivalent of $82,250 US.
