The full story
Why Craig Zinn Automotive Group earned this grade
Between June 2026 and June 2026, CarEdge negotiated or logged 6 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 genuinely reasonable
$300 is $616 below the FL average of $915. That's money you keep — most dealers in their market charge more.
Add-ons offered — none required
