Bottom line though - Glad you are happy you got the car you wanted at an agreeable price. That just seems like a weird car purchase shell game to me.

They offered me a lower price for the car if I
1. bought their ext warranty and...
2. got the car dealer certified for the warranty
3. Financed a portion of it
I guess it was really a wash for me, except I got a warranty out of it that I wasn't expecting to purchase. I think they probably got an incentive to finance/cert./warranty from the bank/mfg. and were able to give me the warranty for my trouble.
Had I just paid cash and walked out the door I would have paid a higher price and not had the ext warranty.
