I know you've dug your heels in on this one but you could be putting in a tremendous amount of time and effort for what will likely end up being a $300 check, in the best case.
Regardless of all of the above, the burden of proof is on you. You have to know what you're asking for and have proper support to back up that number. We've already asked you how much you think you're owed and you haven't been able to answer and you've said the 17c calculation is BS but you don't have evidence to prove otherwise. You need to have your ducks in a row if you're going to escalate this.

New car just means more money. It's not the Miata. Back on topic please.
