Know what you want to pay for the car OTD

i probably just should have wrote that, because its the bottom line.

Also "a deal" is such a weird term to use when it comes to buying cars. In Scott's case I will say yes that looks like a great deal. But at the end of the day if your payment is what you prepared to make and you are happy with the transaction, that is a good "deal" to me. Of course there are circumstances where you get a smoking deal like this one, but not always.

correct also.  everybody thinks they are getting a "deal" but the reality is that somehow they're making their money off you, with some making more and some making less, so as long as you're happy and not getting totally ripped off you've done well.

i wouldn't call it smoking, but well bought in the context of that model.  there are niche cars (chevy SS comes to mind) that languish on lots and dealers will do stupid things to make them sell.
