Well now I wish I had known about such a number two days ago. Good sleuthing! I couldn't get my dealer to give me any additional rebates beyond the $4500 standard cash listed on the corporate site; they just kept saying that they had priced all of the rebates that anyone might get in to their dealer discount and couldn't move it a dollar more for anyone. I was skeptical, since these were FCA or third party rebates I was trying to add on, but the dealer discount was indeed quite significant, so I bought into it. Looking at my paperwork now, they actually used $7,500 in rebates (not itemized), so who the hell knows what they did. And they wonder why people get so intimidated and skeptical when it comes to negotiating the price of a car. The bottom line price never changed, but they moved numbers all over the place with no explanation. Even if it works out fine, and it's just the nature of accounting in this business, it still just makes the whole thing seem shady.
