The full story
Why Porsche Minneapolis earned this grade
Between October 2025 and December 2025, CarEdge negotiated or logged 9 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.
! Where to push back
3 thingsDoc fee exceeds the state cap
Their typical doc fee of $350 is above MN's legal cap of $125. This is a red flag — every dealer in the state must stay at or below this number.
TipTell them you expect the doc fee at $125 or lower. It's not optional; it's the law.
Add-ons are baked into almost every deal
100% of quotes include dealer add-ons, averaging $4,365. This is their business model — inflate the OTD, then hope you don't line-item it.
TipDemand an itemized quote before signing anything. Every add-on is optional — refuse them unless you actually want them.
The listing isn't quite the price
Quoted prices run about 3.1% above the advertised listing. On a $35,000 vehicle that's roughly $1,085 in extra fees or markup.
TipGet an OTD quote in writing before you visit. Compare it to the listing — if there's a gap, ask them to account for every line.
