The full story

Why Pompano Honda earned this grade

Between January 2026 and January 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 things

Doc fee is slightly padded

$999 is $16 above the FL average of $983. 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.

Listing price and real price disagree

Quoted prices run 29.9% above the advertised listing — roughly $10,465 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.

What they do well:Nothing stands out as a strength in this data. That's the finding.
