The full story
Why Autos Of Dallas - Plano earned this grade
Between December 2025 and August 2026, CarEdge negotiated or logged 19 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 thingsDoc fee is in line with the market
At $225, their doc fee sits at or just under the TX average. Not exceptional, but nothing to fight over.
Shoppers who negotiated saved real money
Across 3 back-and-forth negotiations we tracked here, buyers saved an average of $3,049 from first quote to final. That tells you their opening number has room.
TipNever take the first quote. Their floor is lower than what they offer on day one.
! Where to push back
2 thingsAdd-ons are baked into almost every deal
68% of quotes include add-ons the buyer couldn't remove, averaging $3,398. This is their business model — inflate the OTD, then hope you don't line-item it.
TipDemand an itemized quote before signing anything, and ask them to justify every "required" charge in writing.
Listing price and real price disagree
Quoted prices run 7.9% above the advertised listing — roughly $2,765 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.
