I ordered it bone stock... they were unwilling to budge on reducing the price of the expensive accessories. So, once I get the car, it'll be off to Canadian Tire to get the floor mats, scotch guard, electronic rust inhibitor, etc.

Congrats on your purchase. I did some research on a site called
www.redflagdeals.com and someone posted that the retail price for an 05 or 06 (can't remember) was around $17180 and the wholesale price was $16,149 - the numbers were obtained from CarCostCanada.
So, your number for $500 above cost seems about right as the MSRP for an 08 is a couple of hundred higher than the MSRP for 05/06.
