Right.

Go see the car. In my state the dealer or distributor (TMS) doesn't have to disclose pre-delivery damage below $800 on a "new" car, so if the limit is the same in CA the dealership was forced to disclose the damage, it's not something most would do voluntarily.

Something fishy going on here with the dealership. I'd want full disclosure before and after repairs before acceptance. It's not like there's a shortage of RS 1.0s so if they refuse your terms and/or cash settlement, walk.
