The full story
Why Kia Of Clermont earned this grade
Between August 2026 and August 2026, CarEdge negotiated or logged 2 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 thingThe 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
1 thingDoc fee is significantly inflated
$1,298 is $391 above the FL average of $907. 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.
