The full story

Why Infiniti Of Charlotte earned this grade

Between April 2026 and June 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.

! Where to push back

3 things

Doc fee is significantly inflated

$999 is $220 above the NC average of $779. 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 show up on most deals

40% of quotes include dealer add-ons, averaging $1,995. Expect them to try to include something — paint protection, nitrogen-filled tires, VIN etching.

TipNearly all aftermarket add-ons are optional and removable. Say "please take those off the quote" and watch the OTD drop.

Listing price and real price disagree

Quoted prices run 7.5% above the advertised listing — roughly $2,625 extra on a $35k vehicle. That's a pattern, not a rounding error.

TipThis dealer's listing price is a marketing number, not a real one. Don't anchor to it — anchor to an out-the-door target.

What they do well:Nothing stands out as a strength in this data. That's the finding.
