The full story
Why Open Road Acura Of Wayne earned this grade
Between May 2026 and May 2026, CarEdge negotiated or logged 1 verified deals with this dealership.

Then we graded them the way a friend in the business would: on the things that actually cost you money.
! Where to push back
2 thingsDoc fee is significantly inflated
$999 is $281 above the NJ average of $718. 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.
Listing price and real price disagree
Quoted prices run 8.5% above the advertised listing — roughly $2,975 extra on a $35k vehicle. That's a pattern, not a rounding error.
TipThis dealer's listing price is a marketing number, not a real one. Don't anchor to it — anchor to an out-the-door target.
