I generally agree with the math.

note:

VDIM is def. an improvement over VSC with TRAC .

numerous reviews points this out.

having VDIM and getting a $2000 provincial sales tax rebate (in Ontario, Canada) were big factors in going from the LE to the hybrid for me.

also. I got $900 Canadian off the MSRP (in Ottawa, (OT) ) and $100 off the accessories I had added on. Other dealers weren't budging on the MSRP, but I didn't experience any trying to force on added extras. - Hope this info. helps.
