The full story

Why Sheehy Lexus Of Annapolis earned this grade

Between November 2025 and July 2026, CarEdge negotiated or logged 14 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

2 things

Add-ons are the exception, not the rule

Only 14% of quotes include dealer-installed add-ons, averaging $2,990 when present. Most shoppers here never see them.

Advertised pricing is largely honest

On average, the quoted price is only 2.3% above the listing — small enough to be fees, not markup games.

! Where to push back

1 thing

Doc fee is slightly padded

$798 is $46 above the MD average of $752. 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.
