The full story
Why Williams Subaru Charlotte earned this grade
Williams Subaru Charlotte had 6 verified quotes reviewed by CarEdge from June through July 2026. This review considers dealer fees, required extras, selling prices, and whether charges were clearly shown.
What they do well
- ✓ Dealer fees were clearly itemized and below the reference. Average confirmed dealer fees were $798 across the 6 quotes, and none exceeded the $866.13 Median state fee in NC—the middle fee amount in the eligible quote sample.
- ✓ One written offer was below the advertised price. Its vehicle selling price was $23,567.05 versus an advertised $24,998, a difference of $1,430.95. Selling price is before taxes, government charges, dealer fees, and extras; this result is from one quote, not a pattern across all six.
Where to push back
Three quotes show required extras averaging $396; two included a required-extra charge greater than zero. Ask for the exact required extras and their total to be listed in your written offer, and confirm the full amount you would pay before agreeing. Compare the vehicle selling price with the advertised price on your own written offer.
