Why Speedway Auto Sales earned this grade

Between October 2025 and October 2025, 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 exceeds the state cap

Their typical doc fee of $899 is above WA's legal cap of $200. 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 $200 or lower. It's not optional; it's the law.

The listing isn't quite the price

Quoted prices run about 6.5% above the advertised listing. On a $35,000 vehicle that's roughly $2,275 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.
