Stores pay a service charge for accepting credit cards, usually 1.6 to 3 percent of the total price, including tax. So..... if the dealer knows you, you are always more likely to get a better discount with a check. Or, if the dealer doesn't know you, use CASH. BTW, I own both an M3 and an M6. Since I rarely use wide-angle lenses, I prefer the M3's almost lifesize finder. I also like the heft and balance better. Just a personal thing :) Best Regards, Rich
