The full story
Why Paul Miller Subaru earned this grade
Between December 2025 and April 2026, CarEdge negotiated or logged 77 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
1 thingAdd-ons are the exception, not the rule
Only 16% of quotes include dealer-installed add-ons, averaging $798 when present. Most shoppers here never see them.
! Where to push back
2 thingsDoc fee is significantly inflated
$995 is $285 above the NJ average of $710. 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 7.3% above the advertised listing — roughly $2,555 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.
