The full story

Why Honda of Serramonte earned this grade

Between October 2025 and October 2026, CarEdge negotiated or logged 16 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

3 things

Doc fee is in line with the market

At $85, their doc fee sits at or just under the CA average. Not exceptional, but nothing to fight over.

Advertised pricing is largely honest

On average, the quoted price is only 0.2% above the listing — small enough to be fees, not markup games.

Shoppers who negotiated saved real money

Across 4 back-and-forth negotiations we tracked here, buyers saved an average of $1,671 from first quote to final. That tells you their opening number has room.

TipNever take the first quote. Their floor is lower than what they offer on day one.

! Where to push back

1 thing

Quoted add-ons show up on many deals

44% of quotes include add-ons that aren't marked optional. Across all recent quotes, add-ons average $245. 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.
