What vehicles are sold in the United States but not in Canada?

I am looking for details specific to the modern era cars (2000+). One good example is the 2004 to 2006 Pontiac GTO. I also heard there is a new Subaru WRX STi now in this category. Has anyone come across a source for this information? I am seeking the information to conduct an inquiry as to the inadmissability of specific vehicles for importation into Canada. Thank you in advance for your assistance. Apparently I need to clarify the question as I am not getting any useful answers. There are a number of vehicles sold in North America that have been available to either Canada or the USA but not necessarily both countries at the same time. I am only interested in finding out what vehicles are currently available for purchase ONLY in the US. For example, the 2004 to 2006 Pontiac GTO. This information is needed for a report that will be submitted to Transport Canada in an effort to have them relax (or change) their restrictions with respect to the importation of certain cars to Canada from the US. The Government should not have the right to restrict consumer options if there is no quantifiable objective reason to keep the vehicle out of the country. Please answer only if you have read and understand the question. Thank you.
