The full story
Why Deluxe Auto Sales earned this grade
Deluxe Auto Sales is graded C based on five verified quotes from November 2025 through April 2026. The review considers dealer fees, required extras, selling prices and how clearly charges were shown.
What they do well
- ✓ Dealer fees were itemized — All five quotes showed fully itemized dealer fees, so buyers could see the charges.
Where to push back
Average confirmed dealer fees were $1,935, and all five quotes exceeded New Jersey’s Median state fee of $799. That median is the middle fee amount in the eligible quote sample. Ask why the dealer fees are higher and whether any can be reduced.
Average required add-ons were $1,895 in the one quote that showed a required-extra charge. Ask whether that charge applies to your vehicle and have it included in the written total. Taxes were unclear in two quotes, and two did not show government charges separately. Before agreeing, request an itemized written offer that clearly lists the selling price, dealer fees, required extras, taxes and government charges.

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 Deluxe Auto Sales in Linden, NJ, that has meant 5 verified OTD quotes from the past year across 1 negotiated deal logged into our database. Each one is a PDF, an email, or a screenshot showing the actual dealer fees, the actual add-ons, and the final price against the advertised price — not a salesperson's promise.
Only quotes from the past year count. We split them into four groups, newest first: the newest counts 50%, then 30%, 15% and 5%.
