The full story
Why Bob Rohrman Schaumburg Kia earned this grade
Between March 2026 and August 2026, CarEdge negotiated or logged 4 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
1 thingDoc fee is genuinely reasonable
$0 is $367 below the IL average of $367. That's money you keep — most dealers in their market charge more.
! Where to push back
2 thingsMandatory add-ons show up on most deals
50% of quotes include add-ons presented as non-negotiable, averaging $2,296. Expect them to try to include something — paint protection, nitrogen-filled tires, VIN etching.
TipAsk which items are genuinely required and which are dealer-added. Anything not required by the manufacturer or the state is worth pushing on.
Listing price and real price disagree
Quoted prices run 7.2% above the advertised listing — roughly $2,520 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.
