so, is he standard car dealer shifty and i should have expected it, or is he shiftier than usual? based on my one-sided account of how it went down.

If it were me, and I got caught out being shifty, I wouldn't want to have to do reputation damage control over a couple of thousand bucks. But you throwing money at him without having documentation in hand first is kinda, well, dumb. In the end, I am always going to side with someone who is dumb over someone who is shifty. Being dumb is something we all get to take our turn being, but being shifty is a choice.
It's not a threat you're making. You want something from him in exchange. You're making a deal - if you choose one course, I will take this action. If you pursue another course, I will take some other action (like deleting this thread, for example.)
