The full story

Why Lafontaine Subaru earned this grade

Lafontaine Subaru has an assigned grade of B; CarEdge reviewed 2 verified quotes from July–August 2026. This is a small sample. The review considers dealer fees, required extras, selling prices, and whether charges are clearly shown.

What they do well

  • ✓ Dealer fees were clearly itemized. Both quotes showed itemized dealer fees, averaging $280. Average confirmed dealer fees matched the Median state fee in MI, $280—the middle fee amount in the eligible quote sample.

Where to push back

One quote listed $658.90 in required extras. Before buying, ask which of those extras apply to your vehicle and whether any can be removed. Ask for an itemized written offer showing the selling price, dealer fees, required extras, taxes, and government charges, then compare the selling price with the advertised price.

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 Lafontaine Subaru in Commerce Charter Township, MI, that has meant 2 verified OTD quotes from the past year across 1 negotiated deal logged into our database. Each one is a PDF, an email, or a screenshot showing the actual dealer fees, the actual add-ons, and the final price against the advertised price — not a salesperson's promise.

Only quotes from the past year count. We split them into four groups, newest first: the newest counts 50%, then 30%, 15% and 5%.
