Dealer chargebacks for early lease buy-out?

Purchase bonus is currently $1000 and loyalty is $500 more on a purchase than a lease. Add in AMA and Costco and that’s $5500 in rebates and incentives. Nowhere near the $11k that you mention. Purchase bonus would have to be $6500 to get to the number you stated. You’re all over the place.

I negotiated with the dealer for discounts. They were willing to go beyond just the advertised incentives. Is that so rare that me not explicitly saying that makes me “all over the place”? Yes, $6500 is exactly the amount of the additional purchase bonus/incentive/rebate/discount/whatever-you-want-to-call-it that I was offered. That amount was reduced by $3500 on their lease offer.
