The full story
Why Princeton Chevrolet GMC earned this grade
Princeton Chevrolet GMC’s two eligible quotes were dated July 9, 2026. This review considers dealer fees, required extras, selling prices, and whether charges were clearly shown.
What they do well
- ✓ Dealer fees were itemized and below the state reference. Average confirmed dealer fees were $377.63 across both quotes, and neither exceeded the Median state fee in Illinois of $397.13. The median is the middle fee amount in the state reference.
- ✓ Written prices were below advertised prices. In both written quotes, the vehicle selling price was below the advertised price: by $254.10 to $412.96, averaging $333.53 below.
Where to push back
One quote included $315 in required extras; the other quote did not have a known required-extra amount. Ask whether the $315 can be removed, and request a written breakdown of any extras included in your offer. Also ask the dealer to confirm the advertised vehicle price and discount on your itemized written quote before agreeing.
