I think you missed my point. If you ask the dealer, that's what he will tell you. But if you negotiate the price, then call AMEX and report the dealer for refusing to to let you put it on AMEX, the dealer will give in or risk losing AMEX privileges. There may be valid reasons not to want to report him, but you have that option.
