! Where to push back
3 thingsDoc fee is slightly padded
$849 is $96 above the NC average of $753. Not outrageous, but worth questioning.
TipFactor it into your overall price — every dollar here is negotiable.
Quoted add-ons show up on many deals
56% of quotes include add-ons that aren't marked optional. Across all recent quotes, add-ons average $721. Expect to see items like paint protection, nitrogen-filled tires, or VIN etching on your quote.
TipAsk which items are genuinely required and which are dealer-added. Anything not required by the manufacturer or the state is worth pushing on.
The listing isn't quite the price
Quoted prices run about 3.6% above the advertised listing. On a $35,000 vehicle that's roughly $1,260 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.

How we know this
Every number on this page came from a real deal.
Most dealer review sites scrape star ratings and count angry posts. We do the opposite. CarEdge shops for cars alongside thousands of real buyers every week — and when we negotiate on their behalf, we capture the full out-the-door breakdown the dealer sends back.
For Sir Walter Chevrolet in Raleigh, NC, that has meant 9 verified OTD quotes across 1 negotiated deal logged into our database. Each one is a PDF, an email, or a screenshot showing the actual doc fee, the actual add-ons, and the actual final price — not a salesperson's promise.
Fee Transparency
30%Is the doc fee reasonable, or is it just profit? We compare it against the state average — and the legal cap, where one exists.
Add-on Behavior
30%How often does the dealer stick you with mandatory add-ons like paint protection or theft deterrent — the kind you can't say no to? Add-ons the dealer discloses as optional don't count against them.
Price Accuracy
30%Does the advertised listing price match what you'd actually sign for? We flag dealers whose out-the-door diverges from the listing.
Data Quality
