The full story

Why Audi Knoxville earned this grade

Between November 2025 and September 2026, CarEdge negotiated or logged 8 verified deals with this dealership. We pulled the doc fee, the add-ons, and the gap between advertised and out-the-door price from each one. Then we graded them the way a friend in the business would: on the things that actually cost you money.

✓ What they do well

2 things

Doc fee is in line with the market

At $699, their doc fee is within $12 of the TN average of $687. Not exceptional, but nothing to fight over.

Quoted add-ons are the exception

Only 25% of quotes include add-ons that aren't marked optional. Across all recent quotes, add-ons average $325. Most shoppers here never see one.

! Where to push back

1 thing

Listing price and real price disagree

Quoted prices run 15.7% above the advertised listing — roughly $5,495 extra on a $35k vehicle. That's a pattern, not a rounding error.

TipThis dealer's listing price is a marketing number, not a real one. Don't anchor to it — anchor to an out-the-door target.

How we know this

Every number on this page came from a real deal.

Most dealer review sites scrape star ratings and count angry posts. We do the opposite. CarEdge shops for cars alongside thousands of real buyers every week — and when we negotiate on their behalf, we capture the full out-the-door breakdown the dealer sends back.

For Audi Knoxville in Knoxville, TN, that has meant 8 verified OTD quotes across 2 negotiated deals logged into our database. Each one is a PDF, an email, or a screenshot showing the actual doc fee, the actual add-ons, and the actual final price — not a salesperson's promise.

Fee Transparency

30%

Is the doc fee reasonable, or is it just profit? We compare it against the state average — and the legal cap, where one exists.

Add-on Behavior

30%

How often does the dealer stick you with mandatory add-ons like paint protection or theft deterrent — the kind you can't say no to? Add-ons the dealer discloses as optional don't count against them.

Price Accuracy

30%

Does the advertised listing price match what you'd actually sign for? We flag dealers whose out-the-door diverges from the listing.

Data Quality

10%

More data = more trustworthy grade. Dealers with lots of recent, complete quotes score higher for consistency.
