Get the car you want. Use your rebates toward buying or leasing a car, motorcycle, SUV and more. New or used -- any make, any model.<br /><br />Repair the car you already have. From oil changes to major repairs, use your rebates toward service on the car you already drive, when you pay for those services with your Driver's Edge Card.<br /><br />Want more? Choose great rewards in ThankYou NetworkSM. Besides using your Driver's Edge rebates toward your automotive needs, you can redeem them for rewards offered through ThankYou Network, a free rewards program from Citi. Choose from a wide range of merchandise and servicesâ€â€?like gift cards from top retailers, home electronics, travel and more.

You can only use the rebates for a vehicle purchase or maintenance. The PerfectCard looks good, but then it says "Once enrolled, your rewards disclosure will be sent to you containing all program guidelines and benefits"...so basically you have no idea how you can actually use your rebates until you've already signed up. So much for full disclosure. I have the driver’s edge card myself. You can only use the rebates for a vehicle purchase or maintenance.
