The full story

Why Spitzer Acura earned this grade

Between July 2025 and November 2025, CarEdge negotiated or logged 3 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

1 thing

Doc fee is in line with the market

At $387, their doc fee sits at or just under the PA average. Not exceptional, but nothing to fight over.

! Where to push back

2 things

Add-ons are baked into almost every deal

67% of quotes include dealer add-ons, averaging $1,388. 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 4.4% above the advertised listing. On a $35,000 vehicle that's roughly $1,540 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.
