The full story
Why Four Seasons Motor Group earned this grade
Between August 2026 and August 2026, CarEdge negotiated or logged 1 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 in line with the market
At $599, their doc fee is within $40 of the MA average of $559. Not exceptional, but nothing to fight over.
! Where to push back
1 thingThe listing isn't quite the price
Quoted prices run about 5.2% above the advertised listing. On a $35,000 vehicle that's roughly $1,820 in extra fees or markup.
