The full story
Why Sport Honda earned this grade
Between May 2026 and July 2026, CarEdge negotiated or logged 7 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 thingsDoc fee is in line with the market
At $799, their doc fee is within $45 of the MD average of $754. Not exceptional, but nothing to fight over.
Mandatory add-ons are the exception
Only 29% of quotes include add-ons you can't decline, averaging $495 when present. Most shoppers here never see one.
! Where to push back
1 thingListing price and real price disagree
Quoted prices run 69494.7% above the advertised listing — roughly $24,323,145 extra on a $35k vehicle. That's a pattern, not a rounding error.
TipThis dealer's listing price is a marketing number, not a real one. Don't anchor to it — anchor to an out-the-door target.
