Salesman doesn't make sense.

So, I was at the dealership today, to talk to a salesman about an ad they had in the paper which read:

"$263 per month. 5.3L V-8, 4x4, Automatic, Leather, Sunroof, Chrome Steps, Navigation and Much More!"

Of course the fine print read that tax and title fees not included, and $2500 total due at signing.

I tell him that I have $1500 I can put down on it, and he tells me the price would then be $355/month. Still not a bad deal... but $100 more per month if I put only put $1500 down?? That doesn't seem right to me. I tried to have him explain it to me. but nothing he said made any sense.

Does this seem right to anyone else? I left there confused, but now I really wish I would have stayed and questioned him some more.
