Why Lafontaine Subaru Commerce earned this grade
Between October 2025 and August 2026, CarEdge negotiated or logged 5 verified deals with this dealership.

✓ What they do well
2 thingsDoc fee is in line with the market
At $280, their doc fee sits at or just under the MI average. Not exceptional, but nothing to fight over.
Advertised pricing is largely honest
On average, the quoted price is only 1.9% above the listing — small enough to be fees, not markup games.
! Where to push back
1 thingQuoted add-ons show up on many deals
60% of quotes include add-ons that aren't marked optional. Across all recent quotes, add-ons average $488. 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.

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 Commerce in Commerce Charter Township, MI, that has meant 5 verified OTD quotes across 2 negotiated deals logged into our database. Each one is a PDF, an email, or a screenshot showing the actual doc fee, the actual add-ons, and the actual final price — not a salesperson's promise.
Fee Transparency
30%Is the doc fee reasonable, or is it just profit? We compare it against the state average — and the legal cap, where one exists.
Add-on Behavior
30%How often does the dealer stick you with mandatory add-ons like paint protection or theft deterrent — the kind you can't say no to? Add-ons the dealer discloses as optional don't count against them.
Price Accuracy
30%Does the advertised listing price match what you'd actually sign for? We flag dealers whose out-the-door diverges from the listing.
