The full story
Why Nalley Kia earned this grade
Between February 2026 and August 2026, CarEdge negotiated or logged 8 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
2 thingsAdvertised pricing is largely honest
On average, the quoted price is only 2.1% 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 $1,323 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
2 thingsDoc fee is slightly padded
$899 is $133 above the GA average of $766. Not outrageous, but worth questioning.
TipAsk them to match the average. If they won't, factor it into your overall price — every dollar here is negotiable.
Add-ons are baked into almost every deal
100% of quotes include add-ons the buyer couldn't remove, averaging $951. This is their business model — inflate the OTD, then hope you don't line-item it.
TipDemand an itemized quote before signing anything, and ask them to justify every "required" charge in writing.

For Nalley Kia in Stonecrest, GA, that has meant 8 verified OTD quotes across 4 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.
