The full story
Why Sunset Hills Subaru earned this grade
Sunset Hills Subaru had 10 eligible quotes from March through October 2026. This review considers dealer fees, required extras, selling prices, and whether charges were clearly shown.
What they do well
- ✓ Dealer fees were clearly shown. All 10 quotes itemized dealer fees, with no unclear combined-fee amounts. In the one written quote checked against the advertised price, the selling price was $32,839, or $4,348 below the $37,187 advertised price; that is evidence from one quote, not a pattern.
Where to push back
Average confirmed dealer fees were $623.49, and all 10 quotes were above the Median state fee in MO of $593. The Median state fee is the middle fee amount in the eligible quote sample. Ask whether the dealer can reduce its fees, and request a written itemization before agreeing.
Two quotes had unclear taxes. Seven quotes with required-extra amounts averaged $28.43, with one showing a required-extra charge above $0. Ask for an itemized written offer that spells out taxes and any required extras, and compare the selling price with the advertised price.
