The full story

Why Star Toyota of Bayside earned this grade

Between October 2025 and November 2026, CarEdge negotiated or logged 9 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

3 things

Doc fee is in line with the market

At $175, their doc fee sits at or just under the NY average. Not exceptional, but nothing to fight over.

No dealer add-ons detected

Across 9 recent quotes, we haven't seen a single "dealer accessory," "paint protection," or "theft deterrent" line item. That is rare, and it is good.

Advertised pricing is largely honest

On average, the quoted price is only 1.1% above the listing — small enough to be fees, not markup games.

! Where to push back:Nothing glaring. That's part of why they scored where they did.

For Star Toyota of Bayside in Flushing, NY, that has meant 9 verified OTD quotes across 2 negotiated deals 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
