The full story

Why Honda of Frontenac earned this grade

Between February 2026 and September 2026, CarEdge negotiated or logged 5 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 thing

Advertised pricing is largely honest

On average, the quoted price is only 0.3% above the listing — small enough to be fees, not markup games.

! Where to push back

2 things

Doc fee is slightly padded

$600 is $94 above the MO average of $506. Not outrageous, but worth questioning.

TipFactor it into your overall price — every dollar here is negotiable.

Quoted add-ons show up on many deals

60% of quotes include add-ons that aren't marked optional. Across all recent quotes, add-ons average $279. Expect to see items like paint protection, nitrogen-filled tires, or VIN etching on your quote.

TipAsk which items are genuinely required and which are dealer-added. Anything not required by the manufacturer or the state is worth pushing on.

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 Honda of Frontenac in St. Louis, MO, that has meant 5 verified OTD quotes across 1 negotiated deals logged into our database. Each one is a PDF, an email, or a screenshot showing the actual doc fee, the actual add-ons, and the actual final price — not a salesperson's promise.

Fee Transparency

30%

Is the doc fee reasonable, or is it just profit? We compare it against the state average — and the legal cap, where one exists.

Add-on Behavior

30%

Data Quality

10%
