The full story
Why North Penn Mazda earned this grade
Between August 2025 and March 2026, CarEdge negotiated or logged 14 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
3 thingsAdd-ons are the exception, not the rule
Only 7% of quotes include dealer-installed add-ons, averaging $798 when present. Most shoppers here never see them.
Advertised pricing is largely honest
On average, the quoted price is only 0.3% 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 $1,201 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
1 thingDoc fee is slightly padded
$477 is $2 above the PA average of $475. 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.
