The full story

Why Honda Of Port Richey earned this grade

Between December 2025 and July 2026, CarEdge negotiated or logged 8 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

The price you see is the price you get

Their quoted selling price almost exactly matches the advertised listing price. No mystery markup, no surprise "market adjustment."

! Where to push back

2 things

Doc fee is significantly inflated

$1,298 is $361 above the FL average of $937. That's pure margin for the dealer, not cost of service.

TipThis fee is mostly not "standard paperwork" — it's profit. Push back, or get the equivalent off the vehicle price.

Add-ons are baked into almost every deal

63% of quotes include dealer add-ons, averaging $877. This is their business model — inflate the OTD, then hope you don't line-item it.

TipDemand an itemized quote before signing anything. Every add-on is optional — refuse them unless you actually want them.
