Maybe the engine has been modified.

I think you should be able to talk the dealer down a lot, though. Just make it clear that you like the car, but tell him that you can get the same thing elsewhere for much cheaper, and then go to leave. He'll probably give you some BS about how his car is special, but will ask for your number. You'll almost certainly get a call in a few days with a much better price. You can keep playing this game until you get what you want (keep saying that you'll think about it). I doubt he'll sell that car at anywhere near the advertised price, and he knows it.
