Wheellocks and nitrous = $300?

Just got back from dealer and could get the X with pre/nav for 33K, however they want to stick us with $300 for wheelocks and nitrous for the tires. They claim all the G's come from the factory with both. I call BS, as those are optional, at least other cars I've bought. If not, $300 is a rip.

Hahaha, $300? $50 sounds reasonable. They're trying to screw you over, don't let them. Neither comes factory standard.

nitrogen should not be an extra charge. a lot of tire places do that for no extra charge. stock nissan wheel locks should not cost $300. total rip off

Nah, not yet. I offered 32.5K which was only 500 below after the 4K incentives. They wouldn't budge. We walked. Even if we did go with it, they'd have to suck up their $300 bogus charge. I'm kinda surprised they let us walk, given the economy. I don't even think they would budge on the $300 which would be really bad IMO.

Wheel locks should cost you no more than $50 (even that's high) and they should not charge you for nitrogen.

Now if they were hooking up a couple of tanks of NOS, $300 wouldn't be so bad.......

I think they lost my business as I just got an emailed quote from another dealer for $31,900. I called and asked about any extra charges as above and she laughed and said there would be no charges like that. Should I get them to fax me an invoice/bill of sale for the car, so I know exactly what we're getting charged for? I want to be able to walk into the dealer with this just in case they try to pull some kind of last minute crap. Here's what I got via email:
Msrp is 40,230.00
selling price 36400.00
less rebates of 4500
gives you a selling price of 31900.00
sales tax is 1595.00
doc fee of 298.00
