Where to push back
In the one written quote checked against an advertisement, the vehicle selling price was $48,054 versus an advertised $46,989—a $1,065 difference before taxes, government charges, dealer fees, and extras. Ask whether the dealer will honor the advertised price and include it in an itemized written offer.
Average confirmed dealer fees were $1,005 across 23 quotes. The Median state fee in Virginia was $995, the middle fee amount in the eligible quote sample; 22 quotes exceeded that figure. Six quotes did not fully itemize dealer fees, so ask what each fee covers and request the itemized charges before agreeing.
