Take the $1,000 gas card and consider that 1k off the top of the grand total. Cars frequently are damaged in transit or on the lot. For example, in North Carolina unless the damage exceeds 5% of the car's MSRP the dealer does not have to tell you (unless you ask) -fair or not that's the rule. Dealers also don't have to tell you about glass, tires, or bumper damage as long as they're replaced with original or comparable parts. What's the point of making a big deal about something that's made of plastic that can be swapped out like nothing ever happened (and is probably the first thing that's going to get damaged)? They should have been more forthcoming but it's a dealership -there's a ton of mistrust the second you step into one. On the plus side, a $1,000 gas card is pretty fair for something they should be able to easily unload in case you want to walk away from the table.
